Gender Male

Occupation Teacher
Location Bay Area, California, United States
Introduction For six years, I taught reading and writing to ELL and SpEd students. I stumbled through the job of Athletic Director and continuously hired myself as a basketball coach. I served as union rep and was classified as a TFA Almuni. I earned a Masters in Educational Leadership & Administration, producing a collaborative thesis through a haze of distraction. The writings on this site garnered a certain amount of praise, as well as the ire of District leadership. I am no longer a teacher.
Interests teaching, writing, coaching, public education, Teach For America, whiskey, being the change I want to see, absurd sidewalk altercations, late-night eateries, the proliferation of terrible charter school reporting
