Ken has been teaching at Milwaukie High School since 2004 as well as Milwaukie Academy of the Arts.   This is his fourth career.  Other careers included the USMC, pharmaceutical sales, business, and computer information systems.  His training in the Marine Corps included Officer School at Quantico, VA.  Always an educator, Ken's love for science compares only to his passion to use modern tools, such as computer technology, to challenge each of his students to be their best.  His loves to build computers, cook, learn everything known about science, and torture his students with mischievous test questions and tricks.  Blacksmith reminds us everyday that, "Biology is cool!"
