Welcome

As a passionate Technical Education advocate I center my focus on student understanding and growth. Through Industrial Wood Technology students will learn to listen, reason, practice and produce in a meaningful manner. These skills will help them successfully communicate visually and inter-personally their whole life. Overall my goal as an educator is to maintain a constructive and creative environment that fosters communication and will help students realize their own unique potential. I look forward to our students exceeding our expectations.
