I will be starting my 31st year at OVMS. Over the past 30 years I have taught 7th and 8th grade Social Studies, Civics, and a Current Events class. I was Athletic Director for 18 years, and coached football for 10 at the Middle School. My wife and I live east of town and I have two sons. The oldest is a freshman at I.U., and the youngest is an freshman at OVHS. I enjoy hunting and fishing and reading (mainly history books) in my spare time.
