I am a 1992 graduate of CHS. I went to Olivet College where I earned my teaching certification and am highly qualified to teach the following: K-5 All Elementary Subjects, K-12 Health and Physical Education, and 6-8 Social Science. I earned my Master's Degree in Educational Leadership from Grand Valley State University. I have been teaching at Coopersville since 1997. I enjoy seeing students grow into young and productive adults in our society. In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my wonderful family: my beautiful wife Michelle, and my energetic children Emma and Jaiden.
