I grew up in Western Pennsylvania in North Huntingdon Township where I attended school in the Norwin school district.  After graduation I attended Slippery Rock University and after college graduation I moved to Maryland and have been teaching Health and Physical Education in Montgomery County Public Schools for the past nine years.  Some of my hobbies include performing various forms of exercise, traveling, going to concerts, embarking on adventures, and laughing as much as possible.
