We live in Canal Fulton with our schnoodle Milo. I Graduated from Northwest High School in 2008. I was offered a scholarship and had the opportunity to play football for 4 years at Walsh University while earning my Bachelors of Science degree in 2012, for grades 7-12 in Mathematics. In 2018 I earned my masters in education and technology from WGU I coach football at the high school. I welcome the opportunity to have a positive effect on my students lives, and try to push them to be better than they already are.
A little about PLTW
Into to engineering is a great way to summarize the PLTW course. Once student have the foundation of what technology is, what engineering it, and the in's and out's of the design process. Students will teamed up, given a challenge and will be required to plan, design, problem solve, collaborate, build, and present.
