Darwin Deming

After high school graduation I did a year at UVSC before serving a mission in Fortaleza, Brazil. I continued most of my college education at UVSC except for a semester at USU and a semester working at Disney World in Florida. It was a wonderful experience. I graduated from UVSC with my BS in Earth Science Education and have recently applied for graduate school at Mississippi State University for a Teaching in Geoscience emphasis. Right now I teach 7th grade science and 9th grade Earth Systems at Union Middle School in Sandy. As you can see from the pictures, middle school students can literally turn you into a mad scientist. As difficult as it is sometimes, I still love it. For example, I was freezing carrots in liquid nitrogen the other day and a student put it in his mouth and it froze solid to his tongue. LOL! The best part of my life thus far is meeting my exquisitely beautiful wife, Kiara. She and I literally laugh together every day. We met in 2004 and after a week of dating we decided to get married nine months later, Aug. 12, 2005. We're coming up on our three year anniversary and we're still on the honeymoon! She is absolutely wonderful. No kiddies in the oven yet but soon enough. We are currently living in Orem right now while Kiara goes to UVSC to get her AS degree this December. She plans on getting a BS in Psychology. We love the outdoors, watching movies, or anything where we're together. (The only problem being outside is I start to explain the science of what's around us, picking up rocks and explaining what happened millions of years ago at that location.) You can find more info about our lives on our blog: http://www.kiarwin.blogspot.com/. We look forward to the reunion.
