Language Arts Instructor - Apollo



About Me
This is my fourth year teaching Language Arts at Apollo High School. I am an 8th grade football coach at North Junior High, and I am a coordinator for Apollo's Link Crew program. It should come as no surprise I enjoy reading and writing; I also love the outdoors (backpacking, fishing, hunting, etc.) and sports in general. Teaching reading and writing fills me with a philanthropic sense of purpose I cherish.
