Work Experience
I am currently in my tenth year within the Steelton-Highspire School District. Prior to becoming Superintendent, I served as Interim Superintendent and Assistant to the Superintendent at Steelton-Highspire School District. I also served as Building Principal at Steelton-Highspire Jr./Sr. High School. Before coming to the Steelton-Highspire School District, I worked within the Central Dauphin School District for 12 years. I worked at Central Dauphin East High School as an Assistant Principal for three years.

Life
My wife, Andrea, is a Home/School Visitor for Central Dauphin School District and we reside in West Hanover Township with our daughters, Addison and Charley, and our three dogs, Boomer, Frankie, and Georgia. In my spare time, I like to hunt, fish, golf, and anything else sports related. I also like spending time with my family and traveling.
The Steelton Highspire School District is great and I am glad I have the opportunity to work here and help students reach their fullest potential possible. With the help of students, parents, and the staff, the Steelton-Highspire School District will continue to strive to achieve great things.
