About+Mike



I was born in Hamburg, Germany and grew up in Austin, Texas. I taught English and English as a Second Language in Dallas for eight years. I taught at Lakeview Centennial High School in Garland, TX from 2003 to 2005. I took three years off from teaching to be a stay-at-home dad when my daughter was born in 2005. I returned to work in August 2008 as an ESL Instructional Support Teacher, working at Garland High School and Jackson Technology Center. I enjoy playing the string bass and reading.
