I started teaching Physics and Algebra at Standley Lake High School in the 2000-2001 school year.  Several years later I completed my Masters of Science to add to my undergraduate science studies at CU Boulder and teacher licensure at UNC.  Over the years, I have taught just about all levels of Physics and Chemistry from conceptual based courses to International Baccalaureate HL diploma courses.  After eighteen rewarding years teaching at SLHS, I was excited to continue my educational journey to Boulder Valley.  Boulder is where it all started for me, so it is extra rewarding to now be a part of Boulder High School where I teach some of the best students/people around.

My dream has always been to be a science teacher, and a professional musician.  Teaching high school science, and playing saxophone and guitar in HomeSlice (and for the Denver Broncos Stampede) have created a surreal life to share with my family.  I feel extremely fortunate, and push for my students to achieve the same successes in life.

Over the years I have helped sponsor Outdoor Club, Skate Club, Break-Dance Club, and Battle of The Bands.  I am passionate about experiencing the joys Colorado offers and promote students to do the same.
