About Me

Hi Everybody! Just a little about me...I grew up in San Diego and attended San Diego State University for my both my BA in English and then for my Education Specialist credential. I currently live in Imperial Beach, and I've lived down here for the last 10 years. This is my 7th year of teaching at Dana Middle School, and before that I taught at Penn Elementary and Fletcher Elementary. I have 3 kids, aged 8, 6, and 1 that I love dearly and I've been married to my awesome wife for 11 years. I also have a dog named Cholula. My main passion and hobby outside of school is surfing, and I try to spend as much time at the beach and in the ocean as my schedule will allow. I also like to go camping, ride my bike and skateboard, and spend time outdoors as much as possible. I've been vegetarian for about 5 years and try to eat primarily plant-based. I really hope to help you do the best that you possibly can and I hope to help you become passionate about your own learning and self-improvement. Let's have a great year together!!!!
