English
I was raised in Newton, Massachusetts. I have degrees from Vassar College, NYU, and Harvard University. I have been teaching English at WHS for more than eleven years. I have two teenage sons and a wife who works in educational technologies. I enjoy carpentry and writing, and a long time ago, my father and I got to the second round of the USTA Father-Son National Grass Court Tennis Championship.
Writing and the American Experience (Co-taught with Patrick Flaherty), AP Language and Composition, and Gender Studies through Literature and Media.
Special Education & English
This is my 14th year working for Winchester Public Schools. At the beginning of my career, I worked at Lynch and Ambrose and have enjoyed the move to WHS.
I completed my undergraduate degree in English in 1997 at Plymouth State College in New Hampshire. I have a Master’s Degree in Special Education from Cambridge College. I recently completed a Certificate of Advanced Study program in Literacy & Language from MGH Institute of Health Professionals.
I grew up in Old Orchard Beach, Maine. My wife Kristina and I have lived in Winchester since 2003. Our son, Dylan, is a 2022 graduate of WHS. We have two dogs, Hazel and Gabi, and a cat, Eddie.
In my free time I enjoy spending as much time as possible with pets, family and friends.
