I am a special education social studies teacher and the head wrestling coach.  I grew up in a military family whose final destination was San Antonio.  I attended Texas State University and majored in Special Education.  After graduation, I was hired at Roosevelt High School and have been here ever since.  This year will be my 6th as the Head Wrestling Coach, and my 12th total at Roosevelt High School.  I have been married to Emily Rydell, who is an elementary teacher, and we have been married for 10 years now. I have a daughter, Lauren (who is 6), a son, Luke (who is 3), and another daughter, Jane (who is 1).  My priorities are simple...Faith, Family, Wrestling and Roosevelt High School.  I look forward to a fantastic year!
