I have been in education for the past 17 years. I have taught 3rd grade, middle school and now I am a teacher on special assignment at the court school in Fresno county. I see teaching as a ministry. Teaching is not only an academic journey but a spiritual one as well.

I have been married to by wife Emily for 14 years. We have two children, Bella 11 and Bronson 8. Emily and I know the impact teaching has on children and for that reason we homeschool Bella and Bronson. I see firsthand the positive impact parenting has on children at home and the impact lack of parenting has on children when I interact with the children that are in the court school. It is a true joy seeing my children grow in their relationship with Jesus as well as in their academics.

Knowing who I am and whose I am is critical in living out Elohim’s purpose for my life. My life verse is: “I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well”.  NIV Psalm 139:14.
