I grew up in White Sulphur Springs and graduated from Liberty High School in
1976. I attended SUNY Cobleskill, and graduated with an A.A.S. Degree in
Recreation and Park Management in 1978. After graduating I was employed as
the Director of Parks and Recreation for the Town of Liberty, as well as a
Police Officer for the NYC Department of Environmental Protection. I
continued my education at SUNY New Paltz, earning my Bachelor's Degree in
1991 in Elementary Education. In 1998 I earned my Master's Degree in
Instructional Technology (Computers in Education) from the New York
Institute of Technology (N.Y.I.T.). I have previously taught 1st and 3rd
Grades in the Liberty Elementary School, and am now teaching 5th Grade in
the Liberty Middle School.
I reside in White Sulphur Springs, am married 24 years, and have two
daughters, Nicole and Katelyn. Nicole lives in NYC and works in the theatre
industry. Katelyn attends SUNY Oneonta in Oneonta, N.Y.
majoring in Math Education. My wife is a Math teacher at the Liberty
Middle School. I have coached boy's football and baseball, and girl's
softball and soccer while at Liberty, as well as assisted with the Nordic
ski team. Outside of school I am active in the Liberty Free Methodist
Church.
I enjoy all types of outdoor sports, including hunting, fishing, cross-
country skiing, and hiking. Past interests include 15 years of training in
and teaching the Martial Arts, earning my 2nd Degree Black Belt in the Zen
Do Kai Martial Arts Association. I am an avid bicycle rider, and enjoy my
time riding through the scenic highways and biways of Sullivan County and
beyond.
