“Mathematics is like oxygen. If it is there, you do not notice it. If it would not be there, you realize that you cannot do without.” - Lex Schrijver

I was born in Michoacan, Mexico. Came to the US when I was 3 years old and lived in Livingston since then. I'm the oldest of 4 children. I graduated from LHS in 1988 and attended UC Davis after high school. I graduated with a major in mathematics. I am married with 2 children. I have been teaching math at LHS for over 25 years and love every minute of it. I spend my free time watching and coaching soccer.
