The 2021-2022 school year my 21st year of teaching, I have been lucky enough to spend all 21 here at Evergreen Mill Elementary. My first 13 years were spent teaching 4th grade, and then I was finally promoted to 5th grade.   I am a graduate of Loudoun County Public Schools.  I attended Catoctin Elementary School, Blue Ridge Middle School, and am a graduate of Loudoun Valley High School.  I graduated from Frostburg State University with a degree in Elementary Education.  I also earned my Master's Degree in Reading from Frostburg State University. 

I live in Leesburg with my amazing wife, who is a P.E. teacher.  We have three amazing children, a 9th grader, a 6th grader, and also a 2nd grader.  In my spare time, I love to spending as much time as possible with my family, I will never turn down a good book, books for kids and for grown ups.  I love running, I am more the tortoise than the hare.  I love to go the beach and putting my little piggies in the sand, as much as possible.
