Welcome!  I am excited to be at Hickory Ridge. I graduated from Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana.  I taught several years in Louisiana before making the move to North Carolina.   I moved here from Louisiana in September 2015. This is my fourth year at Hickory Ridge.    I am the coach of the VEX Robotics team.  We qualified for our first state tournament last year and our second state tournament this year (2020).
