Biography

I have been with UVU since 2001. Previous positions include High School Relations Coordinator, Director of Enrollment Marketing, and Director of the Career Development Center. I have taught Student Success (1.5 years), Career Prep (5 years), Public Speaking (6 years), and am in my seventh year of teaching Marriage and Relationship Skills.

I get to help people with the two biggest decisions of their lives: what they will do for a career , and who their partner in life is going to be (as an instructor of Marriage and Relationship Skills). It is very rewarding.

I have a BS in Communication (Weber State University) with a minor in Sociology of the Family; an M.Ed. in Educational Counseling (University of Phoenix), and will complete my doctorate degree in Organizational Leadership (Abilene Christian University) with an emphasis in Conflict Resolution during the summer of 2023.

I am a husband to one, and a father to five. My focuses in life are Family, Faith, Fitness, Friends, Failure, and Forgiveness. I'm a published author, love traveling, riding motorcycles (dirt bikes and road bikes), grilling tri tip roast and fish tacos, college football, documentaries, and weekly date night with my wife.
