I’ve now had the privilege of teaching at the former Cortland Elementary, Lakeview Middle School and Lakeview High School during my 17 years in the district. Working at multiple levels has given me the opportunity to appreciate the very different roles our faculty members play in the lives of kids from K-12. I’ve been blessed to teach grade levels and topics that I love. I taught 8th grade American history for many years. Early American history is more of a hobby than a job for me and I love visiting historical places. I’m now fortunate enough to teach a career tech and video production class at the middle school. This has allowed me to use some of what I learned while earning a bachelor’s degree in broadcast media. It has also opened a lot of avenues for creativity. I’m very proud of the work our LMS students have done on our student-led, in-house news program called Hi5 on LKTV. Through the efforts of our LMS students, we’ve been able to spotlight middle school kids for their diverse talents, stories and accomplishments.
When I’m not at work, I’m home with my wife, Stephany, our son, Prescott (named after Colonel William Prescott, hero of the Revolutionary War’s Battle of Bunker Hill), and our two dachshunds (Winnie - named for the character in the Wonder Years and Luna - a deaf rescue named after Luna Lovegood in Harry Potter due to her crazy eyes). I’ve coached boys/girls basketball, softball and boys/girls cross country during my time at Lakeview. My hobbies include garage sales, traveling, history, golf, following various sports teams, watching my beloved DVR and collecting toys, movie props, etc from my childhood (anyone born in the 80s knows we had it the best with He Man, GI Joe, Transformers, Star Wars, WWF wrestling, Nintendo and I could go on for days). Mr. Turco got me started on LEGOs, so I’ve added that to my collection as well. Oh yeah, shoes. I love shoes.

Hello! I have been a Bulldog since my family moved to Cortland when I was in the 3rd grade. I graduated from Lakeview in 1982, received my Bachelor’s in 1987, my Master’s in 2000, AP certification in 2003, and CCP certification in 2016. I taught junior high English and drama in Brandon, Florida for four years before returning to Ohio and starting a family. When my youngest entered kindergarten, I re-entered the teaching profession, returning to LHS. I’ve taught different levels and courses in our English Department, currently teaching Speech (public speaking), College Writing I and American Literature and Diversity in the College Credit Plus program, and High School Publications. Through the Publications program I instruct and assist the student staff in publishing The Bulldog Bulletin - Lakeview’s student newspaper and The Epic - Lakeview’s student yearbook. Since 2003, I have been the Lakeview Sr. Beta Club Adviser, also serving as Ohio Sr. Beta Sponsor, which opened up opportunities to travel to different state and national conventions and leadership summits.
I have been married to Gregory since 1987 and we have 2 adult children, both Lakeview graduates, so I have known Lakeview as a student, teacher, and a parent. I wouldn’t want to spend my career anywhere else.
