I started my teaching career at UW-Whitewater, where I earned a degree in Physical Education, Health and Adaptive Physical Education. I was also a member of the Warhawks track and field team. Track and Field is where I started to develop a passion for my personal health and physical fitness. This will be my 14th year as a educator and 15th year in education. This will be my first year as an online only teacher and am excited to try something new!  Aside from teaching, I spend a large majority of my time overseeing, managing and directing many different indoor and outdoor pools. The majority of my summers are spent training lifeguards and the general operations of community pools. If you are wanting to be a certified lifeguard, I am the person to help. I currently reside in southwestern Wisconsin with my wife and four children. I am excited to start this new journey in life as a virtual teacher!
