I have two boys that I'm very proud of.  They were both born at home in our apartment in Queens.  I helped to deliver both of them and I was the first person to hold them in my arms.  They are my life.  Simple as that.  I take them on trips, I teach them new things all the time, and I'm always learning new things because of them. I often cook meals for them, but they prefer when I take them out for pizza, or sushi, or hibachi ("FIRE DINNER!").    
		





I've been a teacher for 22 years of subjects ranging from 7th grade Geography to 12th grade Robotics.  I've held teaching positions in 4 states for both middle school, high school, and adult education.  My true teaching home is at Xavier High School where I have been for 17 years.  At Xavier I am the only teacher who has chaired two different departments and taught 5 different subjects.  I love the energy I get from teaching everyday, and my students are the best young men in the world.    
		
I first coached when I was teaching in Arizona on the Navajo reservation at Greyhills Academy High School.  I coached football and wrestling that year, and I really loved it.  At Xavier I am the coach of the Robotics team. At home in Ossining, I coach U8 soccer and U13 soccer.  I've also been lucky enough to coach both of my boys in baseball and roller hockey.
