I am entering my 12^th year teaching at CS Porter. I have taught the 10 years in 7th grade and one year in 8th grade.  I am looping with the current 8th grade class, and teaching one section of 7th grade math.  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 (we just celebrated 20 mostly blissful years together) and three kids Lauren, Jacob, and Joshua. I currently teach four sections of Math and two sections of Health/PE. In my spare time I love spending time with my family, music, soccer, skiing, boating, and working on our cabin.
