BIO
I graduated from Palestine HS in 1993, Trinity Valley Community College in 1996 and the University of Texas at Tyler in 1999. I am married to Jennifer Canaday and have 5 spectacular children; Alana, Diana, Jonathan, Aaron and Cadence. My family and I attend ET Palestine where my wife is on staff as the Children's Director and I play bass in the worship band. We have a dog (Katie - a Catahoula Leopard Dog) and 11 cats (I don't know their names...and no, that isn't a typo!!).
I have been teaching band at Elkhart ISD since 1998. This was my first teaching gig and I love it here.
