With a Bachelor of Arts in History from Northland International University and a Master's in Education and learning from Maranatha Baptist University, he's entering his 7th year of teaching. Finding joy in learning and teaching aligns with his favorite Bible verse, Ecclesiastes 2:24-26 There is nothing better for a man, than that he should eat and drink, and that he should make his soul enjoy good in his labor. This also I saw, that it was from the hand of God. For who can eat, or who else can hasten hereunto, more than I? For God giveth to a man that is good in his sight wisdom, and knowledge, and joy: but to the sinner he giveth travail, to gather and to heap up, that he may give to him that is good before God. This also is vanity and vexation of spirit.
