I grew up in Westerville and graduated from Westerville North High School (back when there was no Westerville Central). From there I attended Miami University and earned two degrees in education (math and physical science). For the last fifteen years I have taught physics and physical science at New Albany High School. I love physics and math…and chemistry is okay, too.

I have been married for twelve years to my wife, Sarah.  We have two wonderful children, Wesley and Maggie.  We used to spend much of our time completing projects around the house (finishing our basement, building a deck and patio, building furniture for our mudroom, installing a backsplash, lots of painting, etc.), watching our favorite TV shows (Big Bang Theory, Elementary, Castle), playing video games (we are Nintendo people), and watching movies (too many good ones to list). Now we spend much of our time playing with Wes and Mags.

I look forward to another great year of teaching physics!
