Jesse Damian Blais has always loved science, and he has dreamed of becoming a scientist since he was a child. He was born in Laconia, on November 13, 1978. He lived there for 12 years with his mother and stepfather. He is an only child brought up by his mother, who was and continues to be his role model.

“My mother raised me on her own while she was going through college.” His stepfather is also his role model. “My stepfather is a great guy who strives to better himself in every way.” As a child he took a great interest in science. He was especially interested in bugs and dreamed of becoming an entomologist. “My experience in teaching changed my direction.”

He moved with his family to Dover in 1992, and attended Dover schools. After he graduated from Dover High School in 1997, he applied to the University of New Hampshire. It was his first and only choice because he liked the campus. He also decided to attend the university because it is close to home; most of his friends are there, and it has an excellent science program. He earned a Bachelor of Science in General Biology in 2001. He is currently working as a 10th grade Physical Science teacher at Epping High School in Epping, New Hampshire.

He never wishes that he would have pursued something else besides teaching; it has been his main focus for the past three years. He couldn’t be happier teaching science to the eighth grade students at Dover Middle School. He is trying to instill a passion for science in his students, and he wants them to become good citizens.

Jesse is now a character in a small comic series created by two of his stuedents Samantha Ramey and Heather Crocker. It is based on their 9th grade english teacher, Shawn Lampron. When he was ending his teaching career, they decided to make him a comic book about him. When they met Blais, they wanted to add him into the series. He is the side-kick to Lightnig-Lamp. After a run in with Lampron i nthe story, Blais aquires the ability to move objects to the right with his lazy eye. His comic book name is Blaiz-E-Eye, and it is derived from his name and his power.< http://freewbs.com/lightning-lamp>

Jesse has a special interest in sci-fi, and cites Star Trek as his favorite. He also enjoys Star Wars, and tends to be referred to as Yoda. He has an OCD where he likes to collect things. He just likes mass quantities of items. He also has a liking for flashlights, I'm not even sure why. He works at Handy Hardware in Dover, where he also lives.
