My teaching career started in Niobrara, NE in 1992. I accepted a position with Niobrara Elementary as a 5th Grade teacher and Head Boy's Basketball Coach. It was a wonderful experience and a beautiful area. I really enjoyed the small town atmosphere. The summer of '93 was awesome. I was able to golf every day of the entire summer before getting married. In 1993, I got married to a very beautiful young lady, Nancy. We moved to Gretna in 1993 to raise three wonderful kids. I took a 6th Grade position with Gretna Public Schools in 1993. I also taught middle school technology during my 17 years at Gretna. I continued my coaching career as a Junior Varsity Girls Basketball coach, Middle School Girls Basketball, and 8th Grade Football. After 17 years of teaching for Gretna I moved on to Westside Community Schools. I taught a self-contained 6th Grade classroom at Westgate Elementary School for 1 year. In between teaching I worked for Hy-Vee, Vala's Pumpkin Patch and I made an attempt to join the Omaha Police Department. In 2012, I accepted the technology position at Louisville Public Schools. I teach computer classes for grades 4th through 8th. I also assist with the Yearbook and Broadcast Journalism classes in the high school. I coach Middle School Boy's and Girl's Basketball. This will be my 6th year at Louisville.
My wife Nancy is also in education. She first taught Special Education at Yutan Public Schools. She moved over to Westside Community Schools for several years and is currently teaching for Elkhorn Public Schools.
Outside of school, I enjoy playing golf in the summer. This year my goal was to bring my handicap down to under 10. I am at a 7. Golf is now FUN!
My favorite sports teams include; College Football- Alabama Crimson Tide, College Basketball- All the Madness, NFL- Miami Dolphins and MLB- World Series Champions the Chicago Cubs.
