Favorite verse: “As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.” Proverbs 27:17
Education Background: I have a bachelor’s degree from Dartmouth College and a law degree from Harvard Law School. Educational Experience: I love science and teaching. I started as a volunteer assistant teacher in HCS high school Chemistry a few years ago. I am very grateful that HCS invited me to join the high school science faculty on a part-time basis this year. All About Me: Outside of teaching, I run a “venture studio” incubating technology start-ups for a large management consulting firm. My hobbies include trail running, pickleball, choral music, cooking, and coaching. I live in Newbury Park with my wife Kylee and sons Gunther and Roderick. We attend Prince of Peace Lutheran Church in Thousand Oaks. |

“By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so what is seen was not made out of things that are visible”.
- Hebrews 11:3 The Hillcrest Science Department provides a rigorous and comprehensive curriculum with engaging high-quality instruction that emphasizes hands-on, project-based learning with real world connections. Understanding science is a necessity in the world today. We challenge our students to be actively engaged in the learning process by asking questions, making observations, and connecting learning to their own lives so they can appreciate science and math, and persevere in an ever-changing world. With a wide variety of science courses including Anatomy and Physiology, Environmental Science, Marine Biology, and Sports Medicine, students are offered a supportive and collaborative learning environment in order to cultivate an excitement and appreciation for science as a dynamic and fundamental discipline.
