Let me tell you a little about myself! I am a Stratford graduate myself, having gone through this same elementary school! I graduated from Stratford High School in 2006 and from Winona State University in Winona, MN with a B.A. in Elementary Education with a minor in coaching in 2011. I have been in the Stratford School District since 2011 and have many different grades I have taught. I love Stratford because I really enjoy the kids, the staff, and the chance to learn together.

I live just outside Stratford with my wife, Brooke, who is also your child’s P.E. teacher here at Stratford Elementary. Brooke and I have three beautiful children, Karter, Elliott, and Molli. It is a bit chaotic at home, but I wouldn't change it for the world!

I like to play golf in the summer and spend time at the cabin. I also enjoy reading, biking, hiking, kayaking, and hunting. I just love to be outside when the weather is beautiful! I have traveled to many places overseas and have also traveled to many places in the United States with my favorite being Alaska! I am also an avid sports fan! I absolutely love the Packers and Badgers during the fall. I also am a big Arizona Wildcat basketball fan as well as a Brewer fan in the spring.
