Biography

Bachelor Of Science - Western New Mexico University 1992                                      Master of Arts - Western New Mexico University 1994

I was born in The Dalles, Oregon where I lived until I was six years old and my dad got a new job in Holbrook, Az.  That is where I started my education going through the first and second grade in the Holbrook schools before we then moved one more time to Twin Falls, ID. I was involved in sports as a high school student with baseball being my first love.  Upon graduating from Twin Falls High School in 1987, I was awarded an athletic scholarship to play baseball and go to school at Western New Mexico University located in Silver City,NM.  Baseball was my ticket to an education and I made the most of it graduating with my Bachelor of Science Degree in 1992 and my Master of Arts Degree in 1994.  From there I taught four years of Government, Economics, and Sociology to high school juniors and seniors for the Deming Public School system in Deming, NM.  Tularosa Public Schools then hired me as their High School Assistant Principal and Athletic Director.  After six years in that position, I moved to the Mesa Public Schools and jumped into the interesting life of an assistant principal at Powell Junior High where I have been for the last five years.
