I have been the principal at Romero Academy at Resurrection for 4 years. In 2020, I relocated my family to Price Hill in the hopes of bringing an authentically Catholic and academically rigorous education to children in the community. Prior to my role at Romero Academy, I served as the General Manager of the El Camino Network at Brilla College Prep Middle School in the South Bronx of New York City.

I received my Master’s degree through the University of Portland’s P.A.C.E. program, completing two years of service at St. Joseph’s Catholic High School, an underserved Catholic school in Ogden, Utah, where I taught theology and language arts and served as a campus minister. Following my time in Utah, I spent two more years in the classroom teaching Theology at St. Anthony’s High School in Huntington, New York. I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in philosophy and Catholic Studies from the University of St. Thomas and a Master’s Degree in teaching from the University of Portland.

My wife, Tess, and I have 5 children under the age of seven. My two oldest sons (Thomas and Jack) attend Romero Academy at Resurrection, where they are in Kindergarten and 1st Grade. We all have become proud “West Siders” and live a short 2 miles from the school.
