About Me
This will be my 16th year in District 56. I started teaching at old Gurnee Grade School and then River Trail School. I am excited to start at my new position at Viking Middle School. I am a graduate of Carthage College in Kenosha. My wife is a principal in Buffalo Grove and we live with our two dog and two cats. In my spare time I enjoy being active:running, weight lifting, playing sports.
I am also the 8th grade boys basketball coach and have been involved in that for 16 years as well.
