I am in my ninth year as a 6th grade social studies teacher at Central Junior High. I also coach baseball at the junior high and at East Peoria Community High School on Coach Plummer's staff.
Prior to teaching at Central, I taught social studies (World History and Geography) at Woodruff High School in Peoria for four years until its closure in 2010. At Woodruff, I was the varsity baseball coach and athletics director.
I graduated from St. Ambrose University and earned a Master's degree in Educational Leadership from Bradley University. I have earned additional credits beyond my Master's from Benedictine University. My wife, Ashley, teaches third grade at Robein in East Peoria. Our daughter, Kate, is three years old and looking forward to meeting her baby brother in February.
