Principal
I was born and raised in Jefferson County and have taught in the county my entire career, excluding three years as an assistant principal in Knox county. I have taught at Maury and Jefferson Middle Schools as well as Piedmont Elementary.
I graduated from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga and received my Master's Degree from Lincoln Memorial University.
My wife's name is Stacy, and we have three children Tanner, Tori, and Taryn. In my spare time, I enjoy farming and spending time with my family by going to the lake and camping.
Assistant Principal
I am honored and grateful to serve as the Assistant Principal of White Pine School, a place that has been part of my story for many years. As a former White Pine student and a first-grade teacher here for 15 years, it is incredibly special to now have the opportunity to give back to a school and community that helped shape who I am. I feel truly blessed to serve our students, families, and staff in this new role. I believe in leading with compassion, grace, integrity, and a servant's heart while building strong relationships and helping every child feel known, valued, supported, and capable of success. White Pine is much more than a school to me- it is home, and I am grateful for the opportunity to continue serving and investing in a community that means so much to me.
