Education was a valued trait in my family growing up. My mother being a teacher for 39 years in Special Education for Lincoln Public Schools and Dad recieving the apprentice of the Year for BNSF as a certified welder. I went to school knowing that I wanted to be a teacher, just not sure with what age group. Having a practicum teaching experience in a middle school classroom, was like me finding a great home. I specifically wanted to teach middle school, which lead me to have a rare degree for only teaching grades 4th-9th. In 2011, I had the opportunity to student teach at Schoo Middle School and enjoyed my experience immensely. The day after graduation, I recieved an offer to teach at Schoo and was beyond excited. I have been teaching at Schoo since 2012 and continue to enjoy the staff and students.
Since being a teacher at Schoo I have wanted to continue my own family in education. My wife Trisha is a first grade teacher at Lakeview and we have a gorgeous daughter named Cecelia Liev.
