Jesuit education has been a part of my life since I was a freshman at Marquette High in 1996. I graduated from Marquette University in 2004 and worked at Nativity Jesuit Academy for 16 years as a teacher and administrator before becoming the Director of Admissions. I have a Master's in Education from Alverno College and an MBA in Educational Leadership from MSOE. I am thrilled to promote Marquette's mission of faith, scholarship, and community to prospective families. My wife and I live in Wauwatosa and we have two children in elementary school.

Marquette High is in my roots, from my father who has taught Theology for more than three decades at this school, my brother and I who attended here as students and now my sister-in-law who joins us as co-director of College Counseling. I also received my BA from Marquette University and my MEd from the University of Notre Dame. My career in education has taken me to Oklahoma, South America, the south side at Notre Dame School of Milwaukee and now back to Marquette High. I enjoy sharing my experience of MUHS and its mission with prospective students and families.

Faith
Faith

At Marquette University High School, the spiritual journey of each student is of paramount importance. Grounded in the Jesuit tradition, the school nurtures a deep sense of faith, guiding students to "find God in all things." This principle is woven into every facet of school life, from classroom discussions and retreat experiences to service projects and daily interactions. This foundation not only strengthens their faith but also inspires them to lead lives of compassion, justice and service, truly embodying the Jesuit motto Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam - for the greater glory of God.

There is not enough space to capture how our son has grown in his academic, community service and faith at Marquette. We as parents want to provide the best opportunity for our son to grow and be better than we are. I am so proud that our son is a Hilltopper.
