I am truly excited to be here with you this year. For those of you that do not know me from Rapid Run, this will be my 5th year in this great district and my first year at Oak Hills. I am an Oak Hills graduate myself and I am very proud of my Alma mater. I currently live in Loveland with my wife and daughter and I have a little boy on the way...sometime in late October/early November. I look forward to getting to know and work with all of you. This class will be challenging, but it will also be fun and interesting. If you put forth the effort you will do great.
Here's to a great year...
