Welcome Video

This is my fourth year teaching at CCS, though it will be the ninth year teaching Chinese.  I first learned Chinese in 2004 when I lived in Hong Kong for 2 years. After that, I returned to the states and got my BA in Chinese. I have taught in a few different schools before I found CCS. I really love the students, teachers, and culture here. I can tell I have found where i want to spend my career.

As far as my personal life, I am married and have a five year old son. He is starting kindergarten this year, so wish me luck. I do a lot of woodworking and cooking/baking. Sometimes I like to share those hobbies with my students.
