I received my Doctorate in Educational Leadership in 2005 and have taught at several Universities throughout Illinois. Most recently, I am teaching Technology in the Classroom to undergraduate students at Northeastern Illinois University.

Being a teacher is a calling. I have been and always will be an advocate for developing and supporting teachers who strive to make a difference for children. Commitment to student learning is at the heart of outstanding education.

In the community, I have served on the Lake Villa Township Library Board of Trustees and the P.M.&L Community Theatre Board. I have also served as the Treasurer and President of the Lake County Superintendents’ Association.

I’m also a single dad, having sole custody of my daughter since she was three. Raising her alone has been challenging, but it’s brought even greater rewards. My focus is always on what’s best for the children and I bring that to both my personal and professional life.

I balance traditional educational values with an understanding of both 21st Century classrooms and post-pandemic needs within schools. I am strongly principled in fiscal responsibility and embrace new technologies and teaching methods.

The election is Tuesday, November 8, 2022 and I hope you will support my campaign.
