I graduated from Lynden Christian High School and continued my education at Northwestern College, Iowa. I have Educational Leadership degrees from Cal State Fullerton (Master’s degree) and the University of Southern California (Educational Doctorate).   

  From 1989 to 2010, I worked at Valley Christian Cerritos, CA as a high school teacher and administrator until returning to Lynden Christian in 2010 as the high school principal.   

  After three years working outside of Christian education, I am thrilled to be back in the classroom as a history teacher, where I combine my passion for history and love of teaching to help students understand their unique place in God’s plan for our world.   

I am married to Kelly, who teaches math at the high school and have three adult children, Kelsey, Clayton (LC class of 2014), and Colin (LC class of 2018).
