I started my teaching career at Clements in 2002.  I currently conduct the Symphonic Band, which has consistently received superior ratings at UIL concert and sightreading since the school opened in 1983.  The Clements HS Marching Band has been a consistent contender at the UIL State Marching Contest since 1998.  I currently serve as a mentor teacher for young band directors and I am a member of the Texas Music Educators Association.  I am also an active member of Texas Music Adjudicators Assoiation, judging regularly in the Houston area each year.

I am an alumnus of Clements High School and received my bachelor’s degree in music education from Sam Houston State University in May of 2002 under the direction of Dr. Matthew McInturf.  In December of 2007, I earned the Master of Music degree in Conducting from Sam Houston State University, also under the guidance of Dr. McInturf. 

Currently, I live in Sugar Land with my wife, Jennifer, who is also a Clements HS and Sam Houston State alum.  She teaches algebra at CHS as well.  We have two boys, both of whom are CHS graduates.  We have two Great Danes at home, Myla & Gracie, who I enjoy walking in my free time.
