Teacher Bio

I started my teaching career in Tucson, AZ in 2003 and moved to Ridgefield in 2013.  I am a graduate of Western Washington University where I earned a Bachelors Degree in History.  I have two beautiful daughters and my wife is a counselor at View Ridge Middle School.

For the 2025-2026 school year I will be teaching World History and Academic Success.  As a teacher I am very passionate about working with students with different backgrounds and abilities, and I love learning about how our world has evolved over time.  

In addition to my teaching assignment I am also the Head Baseball Coach at RHS.  I have been coaching high school baseball since 1999, and became the Head Coach at RHS in 2013.  Since coming to Ridgefield, our program has been to the District playoffs 11 consecutive years, won GSHL League Titles in 2016, 2021, 2023, and 2024 and a District Title in 2019.  Go Spuds!!
