I retired from the Army after 22 years as a Combat Medic. I then attended Austin Peay State University pursuing a Special Education Degree. I began teaching at Rossview High School in 2014. Starting my seventh year, I will be focusing on two diploma paths: The Occupational Diploma, focusing on job skills and transition; and the Special Education Diploma, focusing on functional Skills. I am also an Assistant Coach for Wrestling. In my free time, I enjoy renovation and gardening with my wife of 31 years.
