Passionate Educator, Leader, and Lifelong Learner

I am a passionate educator aspiring to be a leader in education as a principal. In this role, I believe I can have a larger impact on more people for the better. My professional mission is to adapt education to meet the needs of an ever-changing society, for the betterment of all people.

I have become actively involved in learning what makes a great leader. Learning the traits of great leaders from the past and present is fascinating to me. Coupled with my passion for Psychology, learning to be a great leader is at the forefront of my priorities. I have completed my Master's degree in K-12 administration and recently earned my Minnesota Administrative Licensure.

Outside of education and for as long as I can remember, my life has revolved around the outdoors. I love to hunt, fish, hike, camp, and enjoy all of the magnificence that nature has to offer. I have a wonderful fiancée who I am marrying this summer (2022). We love going to live music events and concerts, along with traveling a little when we are able to. My dog Grace accompanies me in many of my outdoor adventures.
