Be the person God wants you to be.
Find your purpose.
No one else can do the job you were designed to do.
Psalm 139:14 
​I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
    your works are wonderful,
    I know that full well.

 Peace be with you,
This is my 7th year working with your children at ACS teaching Math and working with technology.

I completed my Masters in Secondary Education  from Grand Canyon University.

Prior to teaching at ACS, I was a Lateral Entry Business and Technology teacher in Charlotte and Jones County in North Carolina.

For my first job after graduating from New Mexico State in Las Cruces, I moved across the country where I became the MIS Director  and Technology instructor at Carteret Community College in Morehead City, NC.

I earned my MBA from Wake Forest University and had a 17 year career with First Union National Bank as a Project Leader in Information Technology, training, support, systems development and corporate reporting.

After leaving the bank, I resumed my first love of teaching. 

I am MOS certified in WORD, EXCEL and PowerPoint.

My wife is  Jodi and we were married in 1983.  We raised 8 children as foster parents and now claim 11 grandchildren. I was born in NY, spent my teenage years in New Mexico, lived a short time in California and have called North Carolina home since 1981.

 I have been a Team Leader with  TheEdgeInstitute.org (TEEI.org) since 1998
 conducting cultural and educational exchange programs between China and the United States.

I was awarded the First Union Excellence in Education Award for service to the Charlotte, NC schools; chess, reading, and Junior Achievement programs. I love teaching and promoting  scholastic chess and am a certified USCF Tournament Director.
 
I have also  served as a coach, regional and state judge for Odyssey-of-the-Mind, a problem solving competition. (NCOM.org)

My other interests are: travel, reading, cooking, poetry, helping others, sharing about China and the restoration of my home and Jodi’s art studio  in the Historic Riverside neighborhood of New Bern, NC. ​
