What do you like about working at University High School?

One of my favorite things about University High School is the mentoring program. I love the opportunity to build relationships with students that isn’t about a class, subject, or grade; instead, it’s real.

Personal Information

I am fortunate enough to have an amazing wife and three fantastic children, including University alumni Grant (’17) and Lindsey (’20) and current student Mason. I spend a lot of my time away from school doing things with the family or doing projects around the house. When I get free time and the family schedule allows, I love to golf, bike, and hike.
