Biography

Ask me about…

  • Teaching and coaching. I have been teaching and coaching for 30 years. Two years at a junior college, and 28 years at the university level, and I just love it!
  • Sports. I love watching, participating or talking about any sport. I am a sports junkie and can never get enough.

Bio: Dave became an Oregon Duck in the fall of 2001. He is a senior instructor ii/assistant director in the Department of Physical Education and Recreation. He oversees the running, weight training, martial arts, individual activities and team sports areas and also teaches a variety of classes in the team sports, running, weight training and leadership areas.

He obtained his bachelor’s degree from Cortland State University in New York and then received his master’s degree from the University of Northern Colorado.

He enjoys being around college students because he gets to teach them more advanced technical and tactical skills. His favorite class to teach is coaching because students can use the skills taught in class in real life situations.
