I began teaching at Cass City High School in September 2002. I am currently teaching Learning Center US History, Learning Center Science, Learning Center Math and Regular Education United States History. I have my professional certification through the State of Michigan in Social Studies, History,  Political Science and Learning Disabilities.  I am a certified Drivers Training instructor.

I graduated from Mayville High School in 1996. I attended Saginaw Valley State University in the fall of 1996, majoring in Education. I started working for Wright's Painting and Sandblasting in Cass City in the fall of 1997. This job helped me become familiar with Cass City. I continued to work there until I received my teaching certificate in December 2001. I student taught at Cass City High School from September 2001 until December 2001.

I enjoy most sports and I have been involved in school sports for the past couple years. I have coached baseball at Cass City at the Varsity and Junior Varsity level, and have been involved with summer baseball programs. I have also had coaching experience for football at the JV and Junior High level.

My classroom philosophy is to give every student a quality education. I have a few simple rules, keep a positive attitude in my class, and respect everyones opinions. These are rules I demand students to follow as well as myself. I try to teach to with the idea that every student has different multiple intelligences as well as learning and studying habits. My goal is to have students think outside their books and learn important critical thinking skills.
