Hello and welcome to the start of the 2018-2019 school year. I am looking forward to meeting with all of the students and families that are going to be a part of classroom 19. I have been teaching for fifteen years. This will be my twelfth year teaching the fourth grade level at Masonic Heights. I worked in the restaurant industry for over 20 years before becoming a teacher. I am married with seven children (pictured) ranging from 22 to 42 years of age and also have 9 grandchildren. Our children and grandchildren have been active in local sports community. My wife and I are contribute to the local hockey association as manager, coach, and board members.
