Biographical Information:

 

 
Photo of Ambassador
I grew up on a farm and was schooled in a small town. After high school. I went to butler university and majored in botany. My love for science has always persisted and my first teaching job was teaching general science to eight graders in a rural community. I continued to get more science education from Notre Dame on a NSF grant in earth/space science. I am presently teaching earth/space science and directing Wayne High School's planetarium. I am married, and I have two children and one grandchild.
