I am a retired Naval Officer having served twenty two years of active duty in the United States Navy. I have served on board many ships in many capacities and I would have to say my favorite ship was the USS Nimitz. From 1997 to 1999 I served as the Fire Marshal of the USS Nimitz. I completed a world cruise in 1998 and brought her in for her first refuel since being commissioned. I loved my time in the Navy and miss it dearly. Thank goodness I get to teach wonderful children now.

   I have a bachelor's degree in Education and a Master's degree in Education. I plan to continue my own education,  because you never stop learning.

   I teach four classes in  in Junior Cadets, a class that teaches all aspects of the military and is a preface to JROTC. I also teach two classes of High School Health, a class that when completed will earn a student one half credit for High School Health. In turn this class will not have to be taken in High School.
