He moved to North Dakota in 2000 after graduating high school where he met his wife Linda and the rest is history.

He is now in his eleventh year at NC and safely says he is probably one of the "old" teachers now! His passions in life include baseball, baseball, and more baseball. Other areas of passion include volleyball, hunting, and horseback riding with his wife. When he is not working, he enjoys spending time with his mom and dad in British Columbia mining for gold. They don't find a lot of gold, but feel like they are rich with experience.
