I grew up in Lake Forest, California. l lived in South Florida for 2 years as a Haitian speaking missionary for my church. This is where I got a taste of the French language. I graduated from BYU in 1997 majoring in History Teaching and a minoring in French Teaching. I have taught 12 years here at SOJO Middle. I love teaching here!

My wife and I have been married for 16 years and have a 5th grader named Alexis and a 10 month old named Sadie.

I enjoy playing soccer and softball. My free time consists of exercising, doing house projects, real estate, lawn care, coaching Alexis' soccer teams, and working on Haiti relief projects.
