I'm currently teaching Physics 1, Physics 1 Enriched, and Chemistry 1 in Room 1008 at Peoria High School.

I taught at Woodruff High School from 1994-2010 (when it closed as a comprehensive high school), and since then I have been here at Peoria High.

I earned my bachelor's from Bradley University in 1993, with a double-major in physics and teaching, and my master's degree in technology education from Illinois State University in 2010. I earned National Board Certification (Adolescence/Young Adulthood Science - Physics) in 1999 and renewed that in 2009 and again in 2019, and it remains current.
