Bio

I was born and raised in Santa Maria and I am a graduate of Righetti High School (Class of '96). I had always dreamed of returning to teach at my alma mater. In 2014, the dream of succeeding my father as director of the RHS Marimba Band & Ballet Folklórico came true. I also teach Spanish and enjoy doing interactive activities and singing with my students. I am married (my wife Michelle is also a Righetti '96 alumnus) and we have a teenage daughter. We enjoy going to the movies and dancing. My favorite pastimes include playing guitar and singing, bowling, watching movies, reading for professional growth, and being with my family.
