Hello Everyone!

   I'd just like to take a moment to introduce myself to you; I promise to keep it short.  My students have described me as easy to get along with if they do their best at what is expected.  I like to have fun, yet complete the task at hand.  I believe in respect and collaboration in all aspects including teacher to student. When I'm not at work I like to play golf, shop, play pool, watch movies, read, watch pro football, and spend time with my family.  My most favorite thing to do is to play UNO and Monopoly with my son.
