Why teaching?  Through much prayer and the grace of God, it became clear to me that I am called to teach. It is a calling to which I have responded little by little over time and has ultimately led to teaching at St. Pius X Classical Academy.  I sincerely look forward to serving the needs of each student along with their families.     
 
Why St. Pius X?  I recognize SPX as a unique and focused environment - one that offers individual attention to each and every student.  As a passionate Catholic convert, the emphasis on faith formation at SPX is something I also care deeply about.  St. Pius X Classical Academy is a truly special place, and this was apparent to me from the moment I entered the school.  

What do you do in your spare time?  I enjoy traveling with my lovely wife of eight years, Emily.  We love walking our fluffy and grumpy dog Charlie.  I also enjoy playing guitar, cooking, finding a good taco truck, and learning/growing in the Catholic Faith.  

Fun fact: I once performed at Nashville's Live on the Green Music Festival and even jumped off the stage for good measure.  I am also an Eagle Scout.   

Favorite Bible verse: Jeremiah 1:5 - "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appoint you a prophet to the nations."
