My wife Kristin & I were married in 1997 and have 4 children: Chance, Cheyenne, Dominick and Gabby.
I graduated from Purdue North Central in 1997 with a degree in Elementary Education and received my Masters Degree in 2007. For the past 14 years, I have taught Kindergarten, 1st, 3rd, 4th and 5th grades. For the past 4 years, I have been a Literacy Coach at Niemann Elementary and Marsh Elementary. In 2010, I published a children's picture book called C.J. In a Pickle.
