About Me

I am excited to be teaching 5th grade at Fairmont this year!  My family relocated to the Valley several years ago from Grants Pass, Oregon, where I have lived most of my life.  

I earned my Bachelor's Degree, completed my teacher education program, and earned my Masters Degree in Sports Management all at Fresno Pacific University.    

This is my 21st year teaching full time.  I have previously taught 2nd, 4th, 5th, and 6th grades.

My wife and I have two daughters (ages 9 and 6) and Griffey (our Goldendoodle).   

I have a passion for sports & coaching.  My favorite teams to follow are the Oregon Ducks and the Seattle Mariners.  

I am looking forward to a successful and productive year of working with you.  Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have questions or concerns.
