I was born in Hawaii and I have moved over 13 times (I stopped counting after that). I am a graduate from the University of Tennessee where I had a great five years of Resident Assisting, organizing events for my residence hall, going to football games (undefeated at home my Freshman year:), hiking in the Smokies, and having a good orange time. Hanging out with my wife and son (1 year old and counting) as well as playing Ultimate are some of my favorite activities.
I teach AP Human Geography and US History/Geography. I also help coach wrestling here at Bartlett. I believe that in order to show you have learned something, you have to back up what you say. Evidence is everything. I also believe that the benefits of developing discipline and mental toughness from athletics can contribute to the overall success of students.
Random Facts:
-I have completed three food challenges ("The Challenger" from the Roaming Gnome, “The Beast” from Snappy Tomato, and the "Heart Attack" from Dr.Getwell's)
-I love stand up comedy: Gabriel Inglesias, Jim Gaffigan, and Bob Smiley are some of my favorites.
- "Who's Line is it Anyway" is one of my favorite shows (not so much the current one, the one with Drew Carey as the host)
-I earned my Masters and Undergrad degrees at UT (Go Vols!)
-Graduate of Bartlett (Go Panthers!)
