I became a teacher because I always enjoyed working with young people. I get a thrill out of seeing my students challenge themselves, take risks, and discover new things about them and the world we live in. I like to provide my students with opportunities to challenge their conventions and "think outside of the box". Most importantly I like to instill a sense of humor into my daily teaching practice. My classroom is a place where students can feel comfortable and safe sharing their opinions, asking questions and overstepping their own boundaries. Most Importantly I enjoy creating a classroom where we can laugh, learn and enjoy eachother's company.
I live with my wife Denise and my two sons Matthew and Zachary. I grew up in Great Neck, New York, but have spent time living in Worcester, MA, London, UK, Ann Arbor, MI, and St. John, USVI.
