A graduate of Central Cambria High School, I went on to further my education at Saint Francis College (now Saint Francis University.) There I majored in History with a minor in Secondary Education.
I have been teaching at Blacklick Valley since the 2006-2007 school year. Prior to joining the Vikings, I taught for three years at the "other valley", Conemaugh Valley.
I have been married for 25 years and have two children, Justin and Cassidy.
