Originally a GEN ED P.E. teacher, I am now a dedicated Adapted P.E. Teacher at Milton High School in Fulton County. I am also the founder and Head Coach of Big Dog Barbell, a strength training program for people with intellectual disabilities and Special Olympics powerlifting. I enjoy incorporating innovative techniques and personalized coaching to make strength training accessible for all my students. Additionally, I am committed to helping other adapted PE teachers learn how to strength-train their students. In my spare time, I like spending time with my family, traveling, and competing in powerlifting. I am dedicated to empowering and helping my students achieve their full potential.
