About the store
As a teacher with a varied and diverse teaching experience, I am always excited to bring my passion and enthusiasm for education into the classroom. From teaching elementary students with medical fragility to high school students in resource and general education settings, I have had the opportunity to work with a wide range of students and subject areas.
Currently, I am enjoying the challenge and reward of teaching Physics, Physical Science, Biology, and Marine Science. I believe that science is one of the most important subjects that we can teach, and I love the opportunity to inspire and engage students in the wonders of the natural world.
Throughout my teaching career, I have also had the chance to teach English and Math, and I have always approached these subjects with the same level of excitement and aloha. Whether it's helping students to understand complex concepts or simply encouraging them to embrace the joy of learning, I always strive to bring a sense of positivity and possibility into the classroom.
Overall, my teaching experience has been one of the most rewarding and fulfilling experiences of my life, and I am grateful for the opportunity to make a positive difference in the lives of my students.

My own education history
As an educator with a diverse and varied background, I have had the opportunity to teach a wide range of subjects throughout my career. My journey began with a Bachelor of Science in Physical Education, which provided me with a strong foundation in the principles of health and wellness.
After completing my undergraduate studies, I pursued a Master of Art in Teaching from East Tennessee State University. This program allowed me to hone my skills as a teacher and learn more about the best practices and approaches to education.
Since then, I have had the privilege of teaching a variety of subjects, including biology, marine science, physical science, and physics. I have also had the opportunity to teach a wide range of grade levels, from elementary to high school, and I have always been inspired by the curiosity and enthusiasm of my students.
Overall, my educational history has been one of exploration and growth, and I am constantly seeking new opportunities to learn and share my knowledge with others. I am grateful for the opportunity to make a positive impact on the lives of my students and to inspire a love of learning in all those I teach.
Additional biographical information
Hi there! My name is Pat and I am a lifelong lover of aquatic life and science. I grew up on a trout farm in Tennessee, where I spent most of my days exploring the creeks and streams that flowed through our property. From an early age, I was captivated by the beauty and complexity of the underwater world, and I knew that I wanted to spend my life learning more about it.
Today, I am lucky enough to call Hawaii home. I live on the Big Island with my wife and son, and I am constantly amazed by the stunning beauty and biodiversity of this unique place. Whether I'm snorkeling in the crystal-clear waters of the Pacific or hiking through the lush rainforests, I feel constantly inspired and energized by the natural world around me.
I am grateful for the opportunity to share my passion for aquatic life with others, and I hope to inspire others to appreciate and protect these precious resources for generations to come.
