Education:

B.S. in Christian Ministry from Indiana Wesleyan

Teaching Certificate from American Board

Years in Education: 3

Years at St. Matthias Parish School: 2

I began teaching with the intent and goal of doing the work of God by educating students in the classroom. Unlike working in a church, where I would get limited time to make relationships with students (once or twice a week), now I get to spend days, months, and years with students and build relationships with them. I taught at Cross Trainers Academy through the Milwaukee Rescue Mission for a year before teaching at St. Matthias. I chose to work at St. Matthias because I love the people that I work with and the people I work under. I have been married for 5 years. I have two wonderful children: Tucker (2) and Delainey (1). I love to play and watch sports (golf, basketball, baseball, and football). I am an avid movie and TV show watcher. I love to spend time with my kids and cook.

Favorite Bible Verse: “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, on your own intelligence rely not; In all your ways be mindful of him, and he will make straight your paths. Be not wise in your own eyes, fear the LORD and turn away from evil” - Proverbs 3:5-7
