I started teaching in Bushland in 2017.  I taught Theater Arts for two years, directing shows like The Importance of Being Earnest and Grease.  As much as I loved directing plays, my passion is teaching English.  This year, I am teaching English 1 1-Honors, as well as sponsoring the yearbook.  I love being in Bushland and am grateful for the support of the parents and administration.

Before Bushland, I worked for Miami ISD.  Miami is a small district about 80 miles northeast of Amarillo.  I taught English 1-4, Speech, and Theater for 4 years before becoming the Principal in Miami.  I enjoyed my time in Miami and am thankful for the experience I gained out there.

I have been married to my wife Chantil for 7 years, but we have been together for 10 years.  We have a son, Shain, who is in 4th grade here in Bushland.  I also have 2 older boys. Hayden is in 9th grade at Hereford High School, and Erich is a manager with United Supermarkets.
