I grew up in Elkmont and graduated from EHS in 1982. I am married, and we have two beautiful daughters--Rachel, a 2012 graduate of EHS and Hannah, a junior at EHS this year. Because of my hectic life, I really don't have time for hobbies, but when I can grab a free moment, I love to read!
I recently completed twenty-five years in education. I spent my first thirteen years teaching at East Limestone High School. I transferred to EHS in 2000. The 2012-2013 school year was my thirteenth at Elkmont.
