Why Saint Thomas Academy? As a St. Thomas Academy graduate of 2004, and later student-teacher and coach from
2008-2010, I had the privilege of witnessing first-hand how STA develops boys into men of character. It is an honor to be back at STA and join this committed team of educators and coaches who all share one common goal.

Why Saint Thomas Academy? I started at Saint Thomas Academy in the fall of 1971 as a student playing football, basketball and baseball. My father was a graduate in 1947 and we are going on the fourth generational now. STA has been foundational in most of my life experiences.
We found a home in Mendota Heights to send our kids to STA and Vis. We all have established enduring life-long relationships here and the leadership experiences are second to none.
A fun fact about yourself: I have just finished my 43rd year of officiating football at the high school and collegiate level. Started the Middle School hockey program in 1994.
Family: My wife Cici and I have three adult children; RJ ’00, Charlie ’03 and Andria (CDH) ’06. and four grandkids.
