This will be my 17th year as a teacher.  I graduated from Rowan University's first engineering class in 2000 with a BS in Chemical Engineering.  I have been with Cedar Creek since it has opened and teach both science and engineering courses.  My New Jersey teaching certifications include Chemistry, Physical Science, Technology Education, and K-5 Elementary.  I have also been trained through Project Lead the Way to teach both Digital Electronics and Principles of Engineering.  This will be my 7th season as an assistant Cross Country coach for the school.   My wife and I run in one or more races almost every week. They range from 5K (3.1 miles) to 50k (31 miles).
