Welcome to my Wiki.

I am a new teacher looking for a school to call home. I have a BA in Marketing and am finishing my MA in Education. My background is in the business world with 20+ years of sales and marketing experience. I also spent two years as a US Peace Corps Volunteer where I was able to learn about and enjoy a remote seaside village in the Philippines.

I have three boys with one left at home. My oldest son is married with five children and he just returned from a tour in Iraq. My middle son is a sophomore at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, CO. and my youngest is doing well as he learns to drive. My wife is a nurse who tries to always keep me busy.

I believe Problem Based learning is a great model because it fits well into business situations. Many times as a Product Manager of Hand-held Computers, I would be presented with issues and problems where I had to find the solutions and many times our customers were not patient. Giving students this type of practical and job related experience is one of the things I look forward to as a teacher.
