I retired in 2013 from the U.S. Army after a 24-year career and am now starting my 10th year in public education.  I am as excited, eager and humbled as ever to join the Taylor Creek family as an Assistant Principal.  After 2 years at a middle school (Pre-Algebra Teacher and Assistant Principal), I am returning to engage my passion at the elementary level.  

My wife of 33 years (also an educator) and I had 4 amazing children: one has their Masters, one is enrolled in a Masters program and one is in the senior year of her Bachelors program...I understand the value of education (our second child passed in 2016 - we miss him!).  

I am here to ensure that your student has a safe and motivating environment to grow academically and as a citizen.  I look forward to us partnering to make this another fantastic year at Taylor Creek!
