About
When I was little, we moved around a lot. We lived in various Utah cities and even spent 1 year in Dallas, TX before settling in West Jordan where I attended Kearns High School. As a child, I spent many weeks each summer staying with my grandparents in Kamas which was a really small town at the time. I much preferred the small town vibe to the big cities which is one reason I am happy to be here at Snow.
Another reason is that I value education. I have always loved learning and have spent many years in school. I enjoy a wide variety of subjects including math, statistics, artificial intelligence, data science, physics, chemistry, music, molecular biology, psychology, Spanish, and PE. After high school, I went to college at USU in Logan and earned a bachelor's degree in computer science with a minor in mathematics. I chose CS because math was my favorite subject and wanted to make money using my brain. It worked. I spent almost 20 years as a software engineer. During that time, I got married, had two kids and went to college again. 3 different times! I earned a graduate certificate and two Master's degrees. At some point, I decided I wanted to return to school yet one more time, but this time to stay forever as a teacher. I really enjoy my job here at Snow and am glad I made the change.
Other than being crazy about school and learning, I consider myself a fairly normal person that likes normal things. I like music. I play piano and guitar. I like sports. I ski and swim and bike. I like ultimate frisbee, ping pong, pickleball, tennis, and racquetball. I like reading fantasy and sci-fi novels. I like epic movies. I play video games. My wife Stephanie went to Snow College and now works here in the nursing department. Our two children are awesome.
