What I Love About MD
There is no greater experience for a teacher than to see the “lightbulb moment”; that spark in a student’s eye when they truly understand a new concept. There is something special about seeing students try, fail, and try again only to overcome any doubt and succeed. Teaching in Film and Media, I am honored to see that every day.

Other experience: Mr. Roberts has worked all over the country in a variety of venues and has the honor of having worked with some powerhouse entertainers from Kevin James to James Brown; his work has also been featured on television, films, and the stage. 

Education: MA in Educational Leadership from the University of San Diego; BS in Technical Theatre, Theatre Administration, from Frostburg State University .
