I'm a proud educator at Stevenson Middle School teaching Career Portals Technology to seventh grade students. Originally from San Antonio, I graduated from O.W. Holmes HS then attended the University of Texas at Austin for my undergraduate work. It's an absolute honor and privilege for me to return to Northside ISD and teach these amazing kids.
Background I'm a retired US Air Force Master Sergeant. I served 10 years in the US Navy and 10 years in the US Air Force. My duties and assignments included working for the Air Force Intelligence Agency(25th AF) and Air Force Cyber/Space Command (24th AF). As a Special Ops aircraft weapons specialist I worked on HH-60 Pave Hawk Helicopters, F-16 Falcons, and F-15 Eagles. I've lived in Pearl Harbor, HI Las Vegas, NV, New Orleans, LA, Fort Walton Beach, FL, Norfolk, VA, South Korea, The Netherlands (Holland), Naples, Italy, and Austin, TX. My work and travels have taken me and my family to many very exciting places like France, Spain, Germany, Ireland, Malta, Africa, Sicily, Greece, Bulgaria, Romania, Ukraine, Switzerland, England, and Belgium. It's been an honor serving our great country and sharing my world experiences with my students.
Hobbies I'm a professional musician and owner of an entertainment/artist management group. I teach music lessons at my studio on my off-time. My hobbies include playing and performing music, writing music/arranging transcriptions for orchestras. I toured with the US Navy Band performing with rock bands, showbands, jazz groups, and orchestras all over the world for over 10 years. I also coached youth sports programs for military children in football and basketball. My summers are typically spent teaching Robotics and Video Game Design for the Northside Adult Community Education Center.
