Hello! It is truly my pleasure to help guide my students into the amazing field of Radiologic Technology. I graduated from this very program in 1998 and have enjoyed every minute of my career. Upon graduation, I began taking x-rays at Bayfront Medical Center and quickly realized the many options offered by the profession. Within a year, I was training and then working as a vascular interventional technologist at St. Anthony's Hospital. Three years later I became a Magnetic Resonance Imaging technologist at Baycare Bardmoor Outpatient Center. During my time in MRI, I realized the benefit of becoming a lifelong learner and obtained my BA in Business Management from Eckerd College and then my MA in Career and Technical Education at the University of South Florida. I also earned a Ph.D. in Curriculum and Instruction with an emphasis in Career and Workforce Education from USF. I began teaching for the program as an adjunct instructor fourteen years ago, which led to a full time position as the program Clinical Coordinator. 

I am now in my tenth year as a full time professor. I try to stay active and serve my campus and college by participating on various committees. I am currently the campus chair for the SPC Faculty Governance Organization and sit on the Board for the Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning. I am also a facilitator for the college-wide Academic Integrity Committee. I am active in the profession outside of the college as well. I am the president of the West Coast Educators Council and am tasked with helping to plan for a national student-educator radiography conference held every other year in Orlando, FL. The conference typically has over 800 radiography students, educators, and technologists in attendance. 

In my free time I enjoy spending time with my wife and children and serve as a scoutmaster for Scouts BSA.
