Greetings Hunting Hills Community!

It is a pleasure to be a new member of the Hunting Hills Team.

I teach Science and Chemistry at Hunting Hills and this will be my seventeenth year teaching.

I have an undergrad in Biochemistry (minor in Chemistry) and an Education degree from Memorial University of Newfoundland. Currently I am working on finishing my Masters in Educational Technology (MET) from the University of British Columbia.

My first teaching assignment was teaching ESL overseas in South Korea. After about four years, my wife and I moved back to Canada and I started teaching Math and Science in Cartwright, Labrador. After a year we moved to Northern Alberta (Fort Vermilion) for almost ten years. We moved to Central Alberta about two years ago when we both worked for Clearview Public Schools. 

Some of my pastimes and hobbies include: Kettlebell sports, weightlifting, biking, art, music and reading everything from medical texts to comic books. 

Looking forward to getting to know the Hunting Hills community and learning together!
