ORBIS Mentor Michael Mertz

Hello, my name is Michael Mertz.  I am a proud alum of Wartburg College (2009 Business Administration Marketing) and Drake University (2012 MAT).  I am currently teaching at the Orbis building as a career exploration and develpoment instructor and a project mentor in the project based experience programs. Also, I am teaching accounting and introduction to business at Centennial High School.  I am passionate about helping students discover new interests and connecting them with the professional community in and around Ankeny.  When not at school I enjoy time with family and friends, fishing, being outdoors, watching sports, coaching, reading, traveling, and cooking.  My wife, Kara, also teaches for ASCD.  We have three daughters also attending Ankeny Schools!
