I’m a Colorado native who grew up in Aurora, and graduated from Rangeview High School. My teaching career began in 2001, and I’ve had a variety of experiences in several districts across Colorado. I married my wife in 2003 and we have three children all aged 15+. I began working at Northfield in August of 2020, and I intend to retire from here (not any time soon) – it’s the best high school to be a part of! I teach lower-level Spanish, and entry-level IB Spanish, for students with less than two years of the language who desire to complete the Diploma Programme. In the Spring of 2023, I launched Northfield’s Student Travel Program, after successfully completing a trip to southern Spain with nearly 40 students and five staff in the Summer of 2022. This program is growing by leaps and bounds, and I love being a part of helping students experience the world through travel.
