About The Teacher Label:


About The Teacher
I began my present position as an Regional Occupational Program (ROP) Instructor of Automotive Technology for the Sacramento County Office of Education (SCOE) in August of 1994. I held the same position for ROP in Southern California. I have more than 25 years experience in the field of Automotive/Diesel Technology, much of which I gained while working for the Los Angeles County Fire Department as a fire equipment mechanic. I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Vocational Education for California State University - San Bernardino and am "ASE Master Technician" certified. I also completed a Learning Handicapped Crediential Program at California State University - Sacramento. In addition, I was named the 1999 "Teacher of the Year" for the Sacramento County Office of Education. I was also "Teacher of the Month" for October 2005 for KXTV News10, Sacramento, CA. On June 1, 2006 I was honored to receive the "2005-2006 Esquire IMAX Theater News 10 Teacher of the Year Award". My wife Judy and I have been married for 27 years and have seven children. I taught at C.K. McClatchy High School for nine years and my present location is at Elinor Lincoln Hickey High School ROP Auto Shop.
