ABout Mr. Goldin
I am from the boonies of New Jersey. Yet, I would often go to The City (New York City). For middle and high school, I attend the Hun School. While in high school, I ran cross country, wrestled, played lacrosse, and worked as an auto mechanic.
Upon high school graduation, I attended Vassar College where I majored in English, minored in education, and played lacrosse. I was a starter for four years and a two-time captain. After graduating from Vassar, I stayed in Upstate New York to student teach and be the second assistant lacrosse coach for Vassar.
However, I heard a calling to move out West. Thus, in 2007, I came to Denver and got a teaching job at Rock Canyon High School. I was also hired as the head varsity lacrosse coach.
In 2009, I left teaching to pursue my masters in Sport and Performance Psychology from the University of Denver. At that time, I remained the head lacrosse coach at Rock Canyon. Upon graduating from DU, I returned to RC as an English teacher and still remained the head lacrosse coach. I was the coach at RC through the 2016 season. And after the 2016/2017 school year, I left Rock Canyon.
My partner and I have been together since 2003; I met her in college. We're happily married, have an awesome dog, son, and daughter. (Our son and daughter are pretty great too.)
In 2017, I became an English teacher at Chatfield. I'm also one of the faculty sponsors of the CSH Mountain Bike Team, Amnesty International, and Chess Club. I'm extremely excited to be here.
