I am an extremely blessed individual. I grew up with a loving family in a beautiful area in central Wisconsin, called Shantytown, and attended the Rosholt School District from kindergarten through my senior year. Next, I traveled west, to another gorgeous area of the state, to attend the University of Wisconsin Eau Claire. While attending UWEC, I took advantage of the Wisconsin in Scotland Program and studied in Scotland for a semester. While I was overseas, I met my wife, who was also involved in the Wisconsin in Scotland Program. Both of us returned to our home state of Wisconsin to finish our degrees. In 2003, I was hired by the Chippewa Falls School District and have been a fifth grade teacher ever since.
I still live in Eau Claire with my wonderful wife and lovely daughters. We now enjoy watching our daughters learn, discover, and grow. I have been living an extremely blessed life. I hope you have been too.
