EI am privileged as a West Virginia steeltown boy to work at the best school in the state of Washington.  I am further humbled as I have the unique and challenging task of working with kids from all over the world from about 30 countries.  I am grateful for my wonderful staff and administration who are compassionate, dedicated, groundbreaking leaders of public education and social justice.

Education:         Whitman College, B.A. Political Science; Syracuse University, Master of Public Administration; University of Washington, Masters in Teaching

How I Got Into Education:  I was leading a non-profit and did not feel in sync with the mission. We had hosted 2 recent high school graduates as interns and, in mentoring them, I realized that I enjoyed helping them learn about our work. This combination of factors pointed me in the direction of teaching.

Hobbies: Reading, Hiking, Watching sports, Travel
