About The Teacher

I am entering my 11th year here at Norwalk High School. In addition to 
teaching Physical Education and Health, I also serve as the Health & Physical 
Education Department Chair, Pool Director, and Boys Swim Team Coach.

Prior to Norwalk High School, I was the Physical Education and Health teacher 
at Rowayton Elementary School for 8 years, and have taught both middle school 
and elementary school Physical Education in Greenwich, Trumbull, and 
Bridgeport.

During the summer, I am the Pool Director and swim coach at Brownson Country 
Club in Shelton.

My wife Sheila and I are the proud parents of Alyssa, Kyle, and Jessica.

My Teaching Philosophy

In Health Education classes, I would like students to realize there is a 
wealth of information available to them. The goal of Health Education is to 
let students know they are confronted with choices in every facet of life. I 
would like to lead students to the realization that they can make choices 
which lead to a more healthful existence, and know where to find information 
to help guide their decisions.I will share some personal experiences and 
stories in the hopes of making this a more meaningful experience for my 
students.
