Math Team
Welcome to Advanced Placement Calculus BC, Advanced Placement Calculus AB, and Advanced Placement PreCalculus! I'm a graduate of Southeastern University with a degree in Secondary Mathematics Education. This will be my 14th year at McKeel (16th overall) and we're going to have a fannnnntastic year!
A couple things about me would include: I have an extreme passion for Gator basketball, and if you see me wearing orange and blue during basketball season, you can probably guess that they have a game that day. I also enjoy many other things such as spending time with my wife (who teaches Kindergarten at SMA), golf, wood-working, hiking, and food. I also have three awesome sons, John, Luke, and Samuel that definitely keep me on my toes.
I look forward to my students having a greater appreciation for the beauty that is Mathematics.
In the words of Lagrange, "As long as algebra and geometry traveled separate paths their advance was slow and their applications limited. But when these two sciences joined company, they drew from each other fresh vitality and thenceforth marched on at a rapid pace toward perfection."
I am also the coach for the High School Academic Team and MathCounts, and the club sponsor of Mu Alpha Theta (the Mathematics Honor Society) and Chi Alpha Mu (the Middle School Mathematics Honor Society). Let me know if you’re interested in joining...
