About Me

A Baytown native and Ross S. Sterling High School Class of 2004 graduate, I bring over a decade of experience in Goose Creek CISD as a classroom teacher, athletic coach, and SPED department chair. I've served at both the junior high and high school levels, and my leadership is rooted in servant leadership—focusing on integrity, accountability, and building strong relationships. As an Assistant Principal, I am committed to fostering a safe, inclusive, and high-achieving environment by empowering staff, supporting students, and collaborating with families to ensure success for all.
