Hello Coyote and Coyote Loved Ones! I am honored to teach 6th-8th grade Scholars in my classroom, B-215, who will have hands-on career exploration opportunities using skills and tools aligned with some of the district's high school career technical education courses and academies. This is my 7th year teaching with the West Creek Coyote Family. I grew up as a military child, and most of my childhood and adult life has been in Clarksville. I served on active duty and in the Army Reserve, both as enlisted and as an officer, and retired just short of 31 years as an LTC/Battalion Commander. I am familiar with the West Creek Family. My three children attended WCMS. Two of them graduated from WCHS and APSU. My youngest graduated from NWHS and will begin APSU in the fall. I have previous experience working with children, at-risk youth, and individuals with disabilities and exceptionalities. I am excited to collaborate with you and your Scholar in the 2024-2025 school year.
