I AM HERE FOR YOU!
Wheaton is my home. I have been at Wheaton High School since I graduated from James Madison University in 2009. I have taught just about every math class offered at Wheaton as well as been apart of multiple sports teams (field hockey, swim/dive, lacrosse, and softball) and clubs (student government association and Jewish Culture Club). So if you can't tell, I love being part of the Wheaton community :)
I have taken on the role of Internship Coordinator this school year (2023) and am very excited to help our students. There are a plethura of internships out there that I believe our students are not only capable of doing but able to excel in. It is time for Wheaton to shine in the community and this is a great opportunity for us to do so.
When I am not doing something Wheaton related, I am being a dad and husband. I have been married since 2010 to my beautiful wife (also a teacher :)) and have two awesome kids; Emma and Jack.
