Why Whitefield: Whitefield has built a community that leans and loves on one another. God is doing amazing things on Whitefield’s campus, and I am honored to be a part of it all. My family and I have loved joining a Christ-centered community that doesn't shy away from its identity and pours into the whole student/athlete.

Why I love my job: I love building relationships with people. Teaching and coaching allow me the opportunity to do so on a daily basis with children, colleagues, and families.

On a personal note: My wife Amber and I have four boys: Rhett, Reid, Rhodes, and Ridge.
