About me

As we return for the 2020-21 school year, I am excited to work with our new middle school math materials.

This is my 24th year teaching sixth through eighth grade students at Murray. Teaching seems to run in my family as my grandmother and father were both school teachers and my mother ran a daycare center for young children. During my time at Murray I have also coached Jr. High Football, Jr. High Boys and Girls Basketball, High School Boys and Girls Track, served as an Assistant for Junior High and High School Softball, and was the High School Head Football coach for 15 seasons.

My wife, Shauna, works for the State of Iowa at the Iowa Division of Banking. We have two daughters, Kylie, a 2018 Murray graduate, who is studying Anthropology at The University of Iowa. Teryn is a sophomore at Murray and is involved in many activities. Our two miniature schnauzers, Coco and Lily, keep us on our toes at home.
