It is an honor to return home and serve as the Prinicpal of Palmetto Elementary School. I have been in education for more than twenty years, all of them in Anderson School District One.

While I grew up in the Newberry, SC area I have called the Upstate my home since attending Clemson University. My wife Ashley and I have three children - Rachel Faye, Harper, and Zane.

I was blessed to complete my student teaching and begin my career as an educator at PES. I taught fourth and fifth grades at PES for a total of twelve years before serving as Assistant Principal at Concrete Primary School for 11 years.

It is my goal to build and strengthen relationships with all of the stakeholders of PES - students, families, and community members. I hope to work together to ensure our students are safe and grow in all aspects of life - socially, emotionally, and academically.

I look forward to working with the students and families of Palmetto Elementary once again as we grow our leaders of tomorrow!
