This is my fourteenth year at Nathan Hale. This year I am teaching Geometry and Precalculus. I attended Stanford University and earned a BS and MS in Mechanical Engineering. While working for my for first few years after graduate school as an engineer, I found that I was spending much of my free time volunteering with youth. I figured that since I really enjoyed working with youth, I might as well get a job doing it full time. I love teaching math at Nathan Hale. I am happy to help students any day at lunch or after school. In my life away from Nathan Hale I enjoy spending time with my wife and two sons, biking, swimming, hiking and reading.

Over my time at Hale, I have been the advisor of the Anti-bullying Club, Meet-and-Eat Club, Robotics, and the Class of 2020. I am part of our school's Racial Equity Team as well as other roles. Reach out any time if you need help or questions. The best way to reach me is email.
I enjoy hiking, going on bike rides, and hanging out with my son Teddy and wife. One of my favorite things is to travel and experience new places/cultures.
