I have been teaching at Parkway since it began in 2012.  I got my teaching degree at Concordia College in Moorhead, MN.  I teach American Studies and Global Studies for 7th and 8th graders.

During my free time, I like to spend time with my family grilling and enjoying the weather during the spring and summer time.  We love to go camping and fishing as well.  Sports is a big part of my life as well.  I coach soccer and track and field at Parkway as well.

I was born and raised in North Minneapolis.  I still live in North Minneapolis.  Working in St. Paul is a great way to experience both cities and see the greatness both cities have to offer.  I live with my wife and we have a 6 year old son and a 3 year old daughter.  I am very grateful. 

When I first heard about the opportunity to teach at a Montessori school, I was excited to take the job and make a difference.  Going through the Montessori training in Cincinnati, Ohio has also made me a better teacher and person.
