Welcome! 

About Myself: I graduated from The University of Mount Union (Alliance, Ohio) in 2005 (Political Science) and completed my Masters Degree (Secondary Social Studies Education) in 2008. I was born and raised in NE Ohio but have found myself living in coastal NC since the summer of 2006. This is my 14th year teaching at Jacksonville High School.  I am blessed with a beautiful family...My wife of 8 years (Stephanie), son (Crosby 6) and daughter (Elliot 5). 

Jacksonville High: For the 2019-2020 school year, I will be instructing Civics and Economics and IB Theory of Knowledge. I believe every child has unique passions and abilities.  In my opinion, it is an educators job to help guide our young people through the process of where their passions and abilities intersect.  I am of the opinion that State and National Curriculum is very important but "life lessons" are equally imporant.  Collaboration, respect, and challenging ourselves to question why we believe what we believe will be a part of our every day routine.  Outside of the classroom, I coach the JHS Men's and Women's Tennis Teams.
