Jeremy taught middle school science in Pike Township, Indianapolis before joining the Indiana Department of Education in 2012. During his time at the IDOE, Jeremy created the state’s first STEM plan, the STEM school certification, adopted new science standards, and added computer science standards for grades K-8. In 2016, Jeremy received his PhD in educational leadership and holds a school superintendents license.
Jeremy currently resides in Carmel, Indiana with his wife Missy and two daughters, Macy and Mallory.
