I am a husband, father, and educator, having moved from the UK to San Diego in the summer of 2013.
I hold a Masters in Education and Teaching Credential from USD, and graduated from the University of Exeter with a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature in 2005. Since then I traveled the world for 12 months, explored Europe, and worked as a Marketing Manager for online retailers.
I finally realized I needed more from a job than a good salary, and was drawn towards a career in teaching. My philosophy of education is ever-changing but I have developed a strong desire to make a difference to my student's lives, to educate them and learn from them, inspire them and be inspired by them.
I've undertaken a summer practicum at Mueller Charter School, and student-taught at Albert Einstein Charter Middle School and High Tech High. I'm excited to begin my second year teaching at High Tech High as a 10th grade Humanities teacher.
My experiences thus far have confirmed that teaching is an incredibly challenging yet equally rewarding career.
