This is my ninth year of teaching at Casa Grande HS. I previously taught at Durham HS (near Chico)
for 12 years and before that at Justin-Siena HS in Napa for two years. During those years I have
taught physical science, chemistry, physics, Earth science, computer literacy and advanced computer
applications, as well as algebra. I have also coached football, volleyball and golf at the HS level.
I grew up in Marin County and eventually moved away to go to college, first at UC Berkeley then
transferring to UC San Diego where I received my degree in chemistry. Soon after graduation I
accepted a job teaching chemistry and physical science at Justin-Siena while working on my
teaching credential at Sonoma State.
I live in Petaluma with my wife, two children (age 14 and 17), one very large German Shepherd and a
little bunny.
It is my hope that all of my science students will:
-gain a greater appreciation for how important a role science plays in their lives;
-be prepared for success in future science classes;
-become better problem-solvers;
-develop a deeper understanding for the nature of science;
-learn to collect and analyze data and be able to interpret the results to make meaningful conclusions.
