Background:
As long as I can remember I have always had an interest in the world around me and how things work. These interests developed into a teaching career and this will be my 20th year teaching science! I have been teaching at iMiddle since we first opened our doors in 2008.
Interests and Hobbies:
As a father of three, my time for hobbies has been dramatically reduced. I love being outside and being active, whether it is playing sports, coaching sports, or just hiking with the family. I have also become interested in RC cars and trucks and spend my free time jumping/racing/crashing/ fixing the RC cars. Sometimes I try to get better at playing the guitar/ukelele. My wife thinks I am pretty good, but my kids are not my biggest fans. I also love animals and some of my pets are in my classroom. My list of animals include: Crested Geckos, Pacman Frog, Ball pythons, 2 cats, and a dog.
