I received a Bachelors Degree of Science in Chemistry from Millsaps College in 2007 and a Masters Degree in Educational Leadership from Delta State University in 2015. I began my educational career with DCS in 2009 at Olive Branch High School where I taught Chemistry, Physical Science, Geometry, and STEM.

It is a great honor and privilege to be principal of LCHS. Safety, academics, and extra-curricular activities are my top priorities as principal. My goal is to provide the students of LCHS with a safe environment where productive learning takes places with high expectations, as well as, a place where students can discover his or her passion while becoming lifelong learners. I look forward to a great school year building on the reputation of excellence that was set by my predecessor and appreciate your unwavering support.

I am deeply motivated by the idea that "Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out." - Robert Collier (1885-1950).
I am looking forward to a great year!
