About Mr. B.

Who is Mr. B. anyways?

Raised right here in Revelstoke since some undisclosed time in the 1900's, Mr. B. actually graduated from Revelstoke Secondary! After high school, he moved to UBC for 4 years to study mathematics (with some science mixed in); that's a lot of math (with no calculator)! After marrying the lovely Mrs. B. in 2008, he completed the Math/Science Secondary Teacher Education Program at UBCO in Kelowna. His teaching career started right away at the Vedanta Academy (now Studio 9), teaching grade 10, 11, & 12 math and science full time for 2 years. Once Mrs. B. completed her Elementary Teacher Education Program in 2010, the pair moved back to Revelstoke for good. Delighted to be teaching alongside some of his former teachers, Mr. B. began the dynamic task of substitute teaching at RSS and is now happy to be teaching more consistently. What great students, what a great staff, and what a great school!

Here are some key parts of what makes Mr. B. who he is today:
  • Husband
    • Relationships with people are of the highest importance in life, and this one tops them all for me.
  • Daddy of 3 wonderful children
    • Is there any job more important than raising up a child to be a capable, mature adult who can make their own good choices in life?
  • Follower of Jesus
    • I am who I am today because of what God has done for me.
    • My relationship with God is at the center of my life and is the root of my peace, joy, and strength.
    • I am so far from perfect, but I am loved freely (hurray for grace!).
  • Nerd & Geek
    • I actually love math, so yes, I am a nerd (and proud of it!).
    • I also enjoy many geeky things like fantasy novels and games.
  • Introvert
    • It's important to connect with people, but solitude is what energizes me!
  • Athlete
    • I love agility based sports. I have played volleyball since high school, am a 2nd degree black belt in Shotokan Karate (hurray for Sparring Club!), and enjoy Parkour/free running.
Some of my interests:
  • Games (table top games like: Magic: The Gathering, Settlers, Lords of Waterdeep, Smallworld, 7 Wonders, Pandemic, ... etc and old video games)
  • Sports (Volleyball, Karate, Parkour/free running ...etc)
  • Mathematics! (and Science too)
  • Homiletics and Apologetics
  • Environmental Sustainability (I now have a plug-in hybrid electric van!)
  • Meaningful conversation
Now you know a bit about me! You're likely to find out more as the year goes on, and I look forward to getting to know you better too!
