About:
I grew up in Fauquier County and met my wife on Grounds in Charlottesville. We are both Double Hoos—Wahoowa! After completing surgery training in South Carolina, we happily settled home in RVA. Our life is full, crazy, and wonderful. We simply wouldn’t have it any other way.
My daughters' hobbies/interests:
Both our girls enjoy being creative with guitar, singing, dance, and art. They also love doting on their baby brother.
Things we enjoy doing as a family:
We love driving around town with the kids and jumping into all their activities. We also enjoy exploring Richmond and making trips to C’ville as much as possible.
Favorite St. Catherine's tradition or memory:
We absolutely adore going to the All-School Opening Service every year. It’s a wonderful tradition to kick off the new school year with the entire community and one that the girls are always excited for.
Why we chose St. Catherine's:
I simply cannot sing the praises of St. Catherine’s enough! From the teachers and staff throughout the Lower School and beyond, we have found the entire Saints community to be warm, welcoming, and exceptionally invested in our girls. Kennedy and Madison grow by leaps and bounds on a weekly basis. My wife and I could not be more pleased with everything St. Catherine’s has to offer.
