About Me
This is my 18th year as an educator. I am a native of McMinn County, but my roots in Monroe County go all the way back to 1802! I began my career in 2008 teaching at Madisonville Intermediate School and stayed there until 2015. I transferred to Sweetwater High School and remained there until this school year. I was promoted to be the district 504 coordinator as well as assistant principal at Monroe County Alternative School.
