A St. Francis alum from a family of educators and artists, I have taught almost every grade level under the sun and continue to switch back and forth from language arts to social studies.  You can find me dangling at the end of a wing, reaching out for a good story from the past for support. In addition to throwing my short arms around the world, I coach the mighty St. Francis soccer team (Forca Eagles!). 

In the eighties, I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Woodberry Forest School in Virginia and then earned a B.A. in English from the University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill.  My junior year was filled with soggy chips, football chants, and the impenetrable gray of Manchester, England, garden spot of Albion.  An interest in the Northern Ireland Troubles brought me back across the water on many occasions, and during a sabbatical from Louisville Collegiate, I completed a masters in Irish history at Queen’s University Belfast.   Before joining the St. Francis faculty, I also taught composition at the University of Louisville and served as museum educator for The Portland Museum and The Filson Historical Society. 

Mi esposa, Sra. Enseñat, es una Cubana muy bella y una profesora del español.  We live in a noisy and noisome bungalow in Crescent Hill with our two children, Lorenzo Miguel and Mónica Graciela.
