About me
I have been teaching in Sparta since 2003. During my tenure in the Sparta School System I have taught fourth, fifth, sixth, and eighth-graders. I received my undergraduate degree from Rowan University and a master's degree from Centenary University.
When I am not in school I enjoy spending time with my family. I am married to a guidance counselor, Grace, since 2006. We have three children, Andrew who was born in 2010, Sophia, who was born in 2014, and Joseph who was born in September 2017. We all enjoy going to LBI in the summer and going to our hometown ice cream parlor, Denville Dairy.
My personal hobbies include drinking massive quantities of coffee, reading, going to the movies, and playing Scrabble.
