Family: I was recently married(July 14, 2007). My wife's name is Sharon, who is a native of nearby Gaithersburg, Maryland. My mother, Barbara, and sister Stephenie still live in Mt. Lebanon, and Carnegie respectively.
Career: I am currently an 8th grade Math teacher at North Bethesda Middle School in Bethesda, MD. I have been teaching in Montgomery County Maryland since August of 1999. I am the Head Wrestling Coach at Walt Whitman High School. I have been coaching in the county since the 2002-2003 season.
Fondest Wrestling Memories: My fondest memory as a wrestler at LEBO was my senior year when our team hosted a "Dual meet tournament." The best match of my senior year was in that tournament against Penn Hills.
My fondest memory (to date...) as a coach came in the 2005 Maryland State Tournament. That year we had four wrestlers qualify for the tournament. All four wrestlers advanced to the State Finals. Three of our wrestlers one State Titles, and the fourth lost in an extremely close double over time match.
