I am a CCHS class of 2007 graduate. After graduation, I attended ETSU where I threw shot put and hammer for the track and field team. After graduating in 2012 with a degree in English, I moved back home to Crossville where I began working as a coach and substitute teacher.
I am married (Lindsay Davis) with five cats. I enjoy most outdoor activities and sports. I especially enjoy hiking, kayaking, and golfing.
I enjoy teaching because it allows me to serve others and help students realize their potentials. School was always a place where I felt like I could do the most good, and so I aim to do just that.
