Mr. Tokheim
I grew up on the east side of Madison and graduated from La Follette High School. My passion around automobiles was found my junior year of high school when I was forced to take a consumer auto class by my parents. This began my career in the automotive field. After La Follette, I went to Madison Area Technical College and graduated with an Associates degree in Automotive Technology. I was learning the trade working at Kayser Ford while I was going to school. After graduating from MATC, I attended UW Stout and earned a bachelor’s degree in Vocational and Technical Adult Education Specializing in Training and Human Resource Development with a goal of teaching at a Technical College. An automotive teaching position opened up at La Follette High School with my mentor. I found that I enjoyed working with High School aged students and ended up teaching at La Follette as a Technology and Engineering teacher for 10 years. While at La Follette I earned a Masters Degree from UW Madison in Educational Leadership and Policy Analysis. This propelled me into a leadership position as a Director of Career and Technical Education for the Madison School District for five years. I returned to teaching at Memorial High School in 2015.
Our family, Drew, Mia, Julie and I enjoy all activities outdoors. We love to canoe, kayak, hike and camp and spend a week each summer in the Boundary Waters. During the summer Julie and I are fortunate enough to spend time traveling overseas. Our kids keep us busy with hockey, scouts, dance and golf. We also enjoy traveling, gardening and cooking in our spare time.
