I was born and raised in Rock Springs, Wyoming but now live with my wife, Cindy, and my two children, Mia and Lucky, in Frontenac. I love to watch all kinds of sporting events.  I am a huge fan of the Kansas Jayhawks and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish! I graduated from Pittsburg State University with a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education in 2001.  I also earned my Master’s Degree in Educational Leadership from Pittsburg State in 2009.  I am so excited to be starting my 15th year of teaching at Frank Layden Elementary!
