I am honored to serve as the Assistant Director, Dual Enrollment Physics Instructor, and Research Instructor at Central Virginia Governor’s School for Science and Technology.

I began my teaching career in Lynchburg City Schools in 1999, teaching physics, chemistry, and mathematics at E.C.

I currently teach dual enrollment physics for seniors and research at Central Virginia Governor’s School. I also serve as the Internship & Partnership Coordinator where I help place all of our juniors in internships during the spring semester.  I am also the Industrial Advisory Board Coordinator where I strive to maintain the strong partnerships with businesses and organizations throughout our region.  I am also the Senior Technology Seminar Coordinator and a couple senior seminar classes including the 3D Design, Modeling & Printing Lab which also includes our industrial laser engraver and the Virtual Reality Lab.   

My education background includes a Bachelor of Science in physics from Longwood University with a minor in mathematics and teaching endorsement in physics and mathematics.  I earned a Master of Education in Educational Leadership from Lynchburg College in Administration and Supervision.  I earned my G.C.

I also earned my Educational Doctorate (Ed.D) in Leadership Studies from the University of Lynchburg.

Although I was born in Ohio, I have spent most of my life in central Virginia.  I graduated from Brookville High School and married my wife Michelle in 2002 and we have three children.  We enjoy traveling and a multitude of sports and activities that keep us very busy.
