Where to begin and what to include in a biography are eternal problems. I could start with my mother’s version of a breech delivery but that would make this too long and painful. So I’ll begin with telling you about my education. In 1979, I graduated from HC. I then attended Calvin, where I earned a BA in math. Upon graduation in 1983, it was off to sunny Southern CA and Valley Christian HS, until 1992. While in CA, I received my MA in math from California State University, Fullerton. I have been teaching at HC since 1992, retired from teaching math in 2025, and now work part time at HCHS as a Life Skills parapro. My wife, Jane, and I have two children. We attend Calvary CRC. Jane works for Young Life. Christian education is an important part of my life. Being able to talk about God openly is important to me. Learning math, I believe, helps us to understand our God better.
