Hello!  I grew up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and moved to Hood River in 2016.   Before teaching at HRVHS, I was the director of the Kite Program at World Class Academy, where I taught economics and math as well as a variety of other courses for 4 years, and before that I worked in wealth management.  I spend my time outside of work picking blackberries, paddling whitewater, kitesurfing, racing sailboats, and lifting weights.  I also make a mean BBQ brisket.
