91µÎµÎ Me
I am a native of Pontiac, MI. I have been married for 30 years and have four adult children — three of which have graduated from the 91µÎµÎ. My wife Kate is a first-grade teacher at Saint Anne Catholic School in Bismarck and we are the proud owners of two beagles Mildred and Bernard.
Why I’m At MaryI am at the 91µÎµÎ because of its Benedictine call to serve all in Christ. Furthermore, I am at Mary due to the call to hospitality for all — even the stranger. Prior to coming here, I had no knowledge of Mary, but now I am glad I have come to learn and teach here!
Expertise
My expertise tends to focus on curriculum development at the undergraduate and graduate levels of education. Lately, my call has been to serve with cultural diversity and social justice base courses undergrad to doctorate levels.
