I started my teaching career at Komachin in 2020. I received my Bacherlor of Science in Microbiology from the University of Idaho in 2008, Go Vandals! I graduated with a Master's in Teaching degree from St. Martin's University in 2020. Prior to teaching, I spent 10 years in the US Army and continue to serve in the US Army Reserves.

I grew up in a military family and like many of our students understand the difficulties associated with changing homes and schools. 

My wife, Ali, is also an educator in this school district. When I am not working you can find us usually out walking/running with our son, Teddy, on the Chehalis Trail.
