College(s): Texas Tech University

Teaching History: I am a graduate of Plano ISD and Texas Tech University. This will be my 17th year teaching in Plano ISD.  I coached/taught football, baseball, basketball, track and Cross Country at Rice Middle School and Vines High School.  I have taught PE at Rice Middle School, McCall Elementary, Barron Elementary, and now the wonderful school of Huffman Elementary.

Family: My wife(Karlyn) and I have been married for 16 years. We have a daughter, Presley, who is 12 years old and our son, Brody, who is 10 years old.  We also have a dog named Cooper who is 14 years old.

Interests/Hobbies Outside of School: My family and I enjoy camping, hiking in Colorado, watching movies, bike rides, and anything else we can do together.  I enjoy playing golf, softball, fishing, hunting and running.

Why did you want to start the IB PYP at Huffman?  I wanted to be part of an exciting journey to help develop the whole child: academically, socially, and emotionally.
