2021-22 will be my ninth year teaching physical education and my 12th year coaching football, basketball, and track & field. My love of learning and healthy living is what inspired me to become a teacher and coach. My philosophy is that hard work will almost always lead to success as long we give our best effort at all times. I teach my classes to have an "All for one, one for all" mentality and that we can do far more together than we can on our own. My goals for all of my classes are to build meaningful relationships with my students, set high expectations to bring the best out of them, and provide opportunities for meaningful participation and success. I want my students to realize that they are capable of more than they think by encouraging them to be resilient andhave a growth mindset. All students can be successful in P.E. and Pre-Atheltics if they bring two things to the table: a positive attitude and their best effort.
