I'm a language arts and
technology teacher by day, and a complete music and cinema nerd by night (or
all the time really). I've worked with our high school students for nearly
seven years now. Wow! I've loved every moment; God has given me a big heart for
teenagers, which is why I volunteer and teach. I'm married to the beautiful and
impeccable Dale Jones who is also a high school leader. I have a cool little dog
named Divot. (He's a cockapoo, but don't say that to his face; he gets upset.)
I'm currently working on a doctorate degree in English education, and much like
our ministry proclaims, I believe Jesus is the best thing that ever happened!
Alright, quick stats--Favorite Books: Ender's Game, The Reason for God, Child
of God, To Kill a Mockingbird, Lord of the Flies... Favorite Movies: The
Goonies, Vertigo, Cool Hand Luke, The Neverending Story, Django Unchained, Dumb
& Dumber, It's a Wonderful Life (I could go on forever probably)...
Favorite Bands: Thrice, Emery, Echosmith, Imagine Dragons, Incubus, Mumford
& Sons, Van Halen, and I love some Billy Joel. I'll finish by explaining
that the most important experience and trait I think we can give any of our
children is to empathize. Jesus is the greatest example we've ever had of what
true empathy looks like.
