I was born and raised in Granbury, Texas, just south of Fort Worth. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Business Management from Tarleton State University. After college, I started out in insurance, but quickly realized it wasn’t the right long-term fit. I was then given the opportunity to return to my former high school to coach and teach, and I’ve been there ever since. Lately, though, I’ve felt a strong pull toward change. I want more freedom, the ability to travel, and time to be fully present with the people I care about—while still doing meaningful work that makes a real difference.
