| Why did you become a teacher? |
| I became a teacher because I love working with high school students and have fun every single day I teach. I decided to teach Physics because my high school teacher, Mr. Nuthall, inspired me and made class fun. |
| Years teaching? |
This is my 15th year at Marina :-)
...and my 14th total year of teaching. |
| Personal Comments/Quotes |
| I like peanut butter and oatmeal-raisin cookies. My favorite big word is rectilelinearpropigation, but I'm not sure on the spelling. No, I don't drink a lot of Pepsi, I just like looking at it. Oh, and SVS subwoofers are the sub of my preference. |
| Interests & Hobbies |
| Desigining & Installing Home Theater Systems and perfecting the newly constructed "Cinema Long", basketball, Apple computers, Christian & Country music, and of course collecting anything related to Pepsi-Cola. |
