I enjoy the intersection of physics 和 biology. For example, the physics of how a whale can dive to a depth of 3000 meters, stay down for an hour 和 return to the surface. Or how bat echolocation works. The closer you look at these phenomena, the more mind boggling they become. This is the type of passion I work to bring to my students. I get the opportunity to help cadets see that they can succeed in science. At Fishburne we keep track of how a cadet is doing 和 remind them of assignments that need completion. Small class sizes enable a teacher to provide assistance to each member of the class during the class period.
CREDENTIALS
How did a guy with a Master of 科学 in 科学 Education from the University of Iowa end up in Virginia?! I also have credentials in Chemistry, 物理, Earth 科学 和 Biology. I was named Teacher of the Year at Luray High School in 2010, 和 the FMS yearbook was dedicated to me in 2015. Special Letter of Commendation for a high score on the 物理 Praxis test.
INTERESTS
I get great enjoyment from growing plants, observing nature, carpentry, scuba diving, 和 reading.
