I received my Bachelors Degree from Eastern Illinois University in Kinesiology and Sport Studies with a teachers certification, as well as a minor in health studies. I have participated in several different types of athletics throughout my life, as well as continuing to practice martial arts to this day. I have a strong understanding of traditional P.E. gameplay based units, but I look to bring my understanding of the human body into the curriculum to show kids excellent ways to practice lifelong healthy living habits.
I received my Bachelors Degree from Purdue University in Elementary Education. I have taught math and physical education for 16 years. I have also coached high school soccer for seven years at Chesterton High School in Chesterton, Indiana. I hope to bring my background experience in soccer, basketball, track and field, and golf to Lincoln Elementary. I have been married to my wife for nine years, and we have two children.
