Biography
I was a student at West Ê®·ÖÁùºÏ²Ê in the early aughts before I decided to join the military as a medic in the US Army. After my military service I went back to college and finished my B.S. degree in Biology, with a focus on field ecology. After completing my bachelor's degree, I immediately went to graduate school and completed my masters in Cellular & Molecular Biology. After that I taught Biology for a few years at West Ê®·ÖÁùºÏ²Ê College. Then, five years ago I moved out of California with my family and pursue my doctoral degree. I finished my PhD in Biomechanics of fall '22.
In addition to being a biology professor, I am also a USA Weightlifting coach and referee as well as a strength and conditioning coach. I love working with students and athletes and have spent the past few years working with Division 1 baseball players, sailors, wrestlers, and tactical athletes.
