My Biography |
|
| I was born in Lake Zurich, IL, and lived in the area until I was 9 years old, at which point my family moved to Arizona. After graduating from McClintock High School, I spent a year attending classes at Mesa Community College. I then transferred to Wheaton College, where I earned my B.A. in Spanish in 1999. I also minored in Bible, Family Studies, and, unofficially, Frisbee. In 2007, I completed my M.A.Ed., Curriculum and Instruction degree at the University of Phoenix. My wife and I met in college and got married in January, 1999. After college, I worked as a youth pastor, substitute teacher, sales associate in downtown Chicago, and restaurant manager, but my ultimate goal was to teach. In 2003, my wife and I were ready for a break from Chicago winters. I heard about the charter school movement in Arizona, as my two younger brothers were attending one, and decided to send out my résumé. When I discovered JMPS, I fell in love with the school and was willing to teach anything to be at the school. I am entering my sixth year at JMPS, and I can truly say that this is the best job I have ever had. I currently teach junior high English and high school Self Reliance. I am also the Athletic Director, coach cross country and softball, build the sets for the school play, supervise the fencing club and the photography branch of the AV club, and co-direct the 8th grade play. I enjoy everything that I do at JMPS so much that I continue to look for ways to get more involved. In my spare time, I enjoy tearing my house apart and remodeling it. I like anything that involves power tools. I also enjoy playing Frisbee, mountain biking, running, reading, cooking, camping, watching movies, swing dancing, and watching the Chicago Bears. |
