About Me

I've been teaching English for thirteen years and love it. Year to year, and sometimes day to day, I look for new ideas to experiment with in our classroom. Some work and some don't, but we all become better readers and writers in the end. I am married to the beautiful and talented Jessica and we have two boys: Vincent age eleven, and Sammy age seven. Outside of teaching I am a master chess player, guitarist, and a rock and roll historian.
