I am excited to be starting my 2nd year as principal at Clark Middle School for the Fayette R-III School District.  I am married to my wonderful wife Emily and have two incredible daughters, Gracie and Ella.  We also have the world's dumbest dog, Max.  I believe every student can learn and that it is my job to figure out how they learn best and use that to help them reach their fullest potential.  I believe every child is special just the way they are but I care about them too much to just let them stay the same as they are today.  I want them to improve and grow academically, emotionally, and socially.  I believe in the core principals and paradigms of The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People.  I try to live those habits as well as teach them every day!  I look forward to a great year as we challenge our students and do great things!
