I come to Indiana University Northwest after serving as a teacher, coach, and administrator for 37 years in public education.  I believe that this experience will help our aspiring teachers as they prepare for their initial licensure.

A few achievements during my career would include:

• Honor graduate of Butler University
• Recipient of the Scott Ham Award for academic and athletic excellence
• Twice nominated for corporation teacher of the year
• Head Coach of 10 consecutive Sectional Championship teams
• Coach of 56 All-State athletes
• Principal of a five-time Indiana Four Star School
• Principal of an Indiana Triple-A School
• Leader of numerous professional development opportunities
• Author of The Principal Outlook
• B.S., Butler University
• M.S., Purdue University Calumet
• Administrative certification, Indiana University Northwest

I have been married to the love of my life since 1980.  We have three adult children and reside in Lake County, Indiana.  We are huge fans of both the Cleveland Browns and Cleveland Indians.

It is my goal to be a positive influence in the lives of both my colleagues and our aspiring teachers!
