Professional Interests

My research interests concern the biblical integration of curriculum as well as math and science education, particularly from a Christian perspective. I am interested in exploring how educational theories influence instructional strategies.

Personal Interests

My wife and I have eight children ranging in age from 21 years to 45 years old. Our seventh child has Down Syndrome. Having a child with special needs has been both a blessing and a challenge. I'm interested, along with my wife, in learning more about educating children with special needs. In my free time, in addition to researching issues related to education, I write music and play guitar.
