I have devoted both my career and education towards helping youths learn and grow. I have taught both at the middle and high schools levels and I love and cherish the positive impacts that I am able to make with my students. I am now really forward to making the change from being a classroom teacher to working with students at the counseling level.

Continuing education and being a lifelong learner is extremely important to me. This program will in fact be my second Masters degree. I earned my first Masters at the University of Michigan in Educational Leadership and Policy and now I am excited to be apart of GVSU community. Go Blue! Go Lakers!

While I am admittedly not much of a runner anymore, I did run the Honolulu Marathon in Hawaii. It was a huge accomplishment in my life that I take a lot of pride in.

Sports are a huge passion of mine, both playing and watching. My wife may even say it borders on an obsession. One of my favorite things to do is combine another passion of mine traveling and do both at the same time. I have a goal of visiting all 30 major league baseball stadiums. To date, I have been to 22 out of 30! On top of that, I have also been to 3 different stadiums in Japan to watch professional baseball games as well.

Family is an extremely important part of my life. Currently my wife Bridget and I live in the Metro Detroit area with our almost 1 1/2 year old son Jackson and our English Bulldog Miguel.
