Hi Spartans! This is my third year teaching at Skyline, and I'm excited to start this journey with you...it'll be interesting to see where it takes us.
A few things to know about me...teaching is a second career for me, but I think of it as a calling as opposed to a job--I love being in the classroom, especially here at Skyline! I try to bring some "real world" experiences into the classroom to help you learn how to manage your time, be responsible, and navigate challenges in a way that prepares you for the opportunities of life beyond the classroom. I have an awesome wife (we met in 3rd grade...) and three kids: my oldest daughter is a sophomore in college and plays softball (go Knights!), my son is a freshman at WSU (go Cougs!), and my youngest daughter is in 8th grade. I also coach football here at Skyline--head coach of freshman--and will be serving as adviser to the Model UN club (come join us!), so I'm busy just like you...keep after it, ask for help when you need it, and we'll be fine! I love spending time with family and friends on our boat, following the Yankees (and rooting against the Red Sox...), music (Led Zeppelin is my favorite...), reading, watching movies, and watching sports of all kinds--even if I don't understand them (cricket anyone?)... I look forward to getting to know you a bit more and seeing where the year takes us! |
