About Me
I graduated from SHSU in 2003 and began working at TWHS shortly after that. Along with teaching Life Skills, I'm also a golf coach for the boys' and girls' team at TWHS.
My wife, Susan, is also a special education teacher at Sally K. Ride Elementary.
Together we have Kamryn Brooke, who was born in 2006. She's a Future Highlander Golfer for sure!

Classroom Management:
Discipline is geared toward positive reinforcement. We use "Supervised Separation" for students who need a calm location to regain control. All discipline is handled on a one-to one basis. Teachers will contact parents if additional support is needed.
