A Little Bit About Me
A Little Bit About Me
Dedicated, Dependable, and Faithful are just a few qualities that describe who I am as a teacher and a person. Born in Chicago, Illinois, I am not originally from California. At age four, my family moved to the LA County, and I have loved California ever since. Some of my favorite things to do outside of school are: Singing in the church choir at Our Lady of Assumption, and going out and looking at interesting things all over the county with my family. Lastly, I love watching old movies with my wife and kids. Family is very important in my life and almost everything I do is for them and God.

Why SBHS?
While being a youth minister in Los Angeles in the early 90's, I attended a mass and ran into the campus minister of Saint Bonaventure. She had told me that she was planning on retiring. Feeling as if she was a sign from God that I should work with high schoolers, I talked with my wife and we decided to move to Ventura and accept the job. My roles at Saint Bonaventure have varied since my days as a Campus Minister, and my decision to work at Saint Bonaventure has been one of the greatest decisions of my life.
