This is my twenty-ninth year in education, and I am honored to be the principal at a place I dearly love and am blessed to call home. I started my teaching career at Ila Elementary in 1996 and have proudly remained an Ila Gator as a teacher, an academic coach,  Assistant Principal, and Principal. It is a privilege to work with an amazing faculty, student body, parents, and community to begin laying the foundation for Madison County's mission of graduating independent, productive citizens.

I spent the last twenty-five years at East Jackson Middle School as a teacher, instructional coach, and assistant principal. In a great leap, I was honored to accept the assistant principal position at Ila Elementary. I have heard nothing but wonderful things about the faculty, students, parents, and community at Ila, and I am beyond excited to start my twenty-sixth year in education as an Ila Gator. 

I earned both my Bachelor of Arts Degree and Master of Arts Degree at Piedmont College and my Specialist in Curriculum and Instruction from Argosy University.
