I am entering my 18^th year teaching at CS Porter. I have taught 12 years in 7th grade and five years in 8th grade.  Ms. Eisenzimer and I are looping with classes, which means this year I am looping down to 7th grade with plans of following them into 8th grade.  I was born and raised in Missoula, lived in Seattle and Boise before moving back to Missoula. I am blessed with my beautiful wife Sandy and three kids, Lauren, Jacob, and Josh. I currently teach two sections of Math and three sections of Health/PE. In my spare time I love spending time with my family, playing and listening to music, hiking, skiing, boating, and hanging out at our cabin.
