As a first-year teacher, I am Mr. Charpia, and I am thrilled to embark on this new journey alongside my family and my students! I live in Central South Carolina, right outside of Clemson, with my spouse and two kids—and it goes without saying, we are die-hard Tiger fans. I am especially excited to teach Advanced Personal Finance this year. Equipping the next generation with the knowledge to build lasting wealth, understand markets, and master their money is a true passion of mine. Outside the classroom, I am a huge wrestling, football, and Excel enthusiast—and I am always down to chat about crypto, finance, or sports with anyone who will listen!
