This will be my 7th year here at Loudoun Valley.  I have been teaching for over 20 years.  I taught 5 years in Miami and 11 years at Broad Run. I also have run programs, been an administrator, worked with gang members and at-risk students, and taught AP.  I was the department chair here at Valley for three years. This year at Valley I will teach both AP government and AP Human Geography.  My outside activities include almost any sports, hiking, skateboarding (longboard only) and anything at the beach.  I am also a professional singer/songwriter.  I am married and have two daughters. This year I will teach AP Government and AP Human Geography.   My classes will hopefully be challenging, diverse, and intellectually stimulating.
