“I am honored and excited to serve as the secondary principal at Wellman-Union ISD. WU is an amazing school district with excellent staff and a bright future. I believe in a leadership style built on respect, transparency, and collaboration. I am blessed to have the opportunity to serve this great place and even better people! My experience has provided me the opportunity to work with some amazing school leaders who have helped shape me into the leader I have become. My experience includes working with school turnaround teams, training administrators and teachers in instructional best practices, and supporting schools in implementing MTSS. Our kids attend WU, and I have a personal investment to see this place succeed. I’m committed to our mission: Every Student, Every Day! It’s Who We Are! I am thankful to the community, staff, and the WU Board for their support and opportunity to partner with you all to continue the tradition of excellence that WUCISD is known for!”
