About:
I grew up on the northwest side of Milwaukee and graduation from Milwaukee Lutheran High School in 2007. I went to UW-Platteville and earned my degree in Technology Education. I taught for two years at Cudahy High School and then eleven years at Milwaukee Lutheran High School before accepting the call this year to teach at Living Word. My wife, children, and I live in West Bend are are members at Living Word Lutheran Church. I enjoy board games and going to gaming conventions, woodworking, Science Fiction/comic book movies/TV, and cooking barbecue on my smoker.
Favorite Bible Verse:
1 Corinthians 12:4-6 - Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; and there are varieties of service, but the same Lord; and there are varieties of activities, but it is the same God who empowers them all in everyone.
Why do you value being part of Living Word and it's school community?
It's a tremendous experience to gather with so many believers and worship our Lord. I'm so blessed to be able to help students develop skills and find career paths where they can serve their community and ultimately serve God. I'm grateful to be part of a school community that truly feels like a family.
