Meet the Principal
Hello Chargers!
I am so lucky to be able to serve this incredible community as the Principal at Chatfield Senior High!
I am in my 4th year as principal and 6th at Chatfield overall.
Every day I set out to do everything I can to ensure that:
-
Every Charger feels prepared, comfortable, and connected to whatever is next for them on the day after graduation.
-
Every Charger makes fond memories that they will remember forever, during their 4 years at CSH.
-
And…that every Charger is proud to be a Chatfield Charger.
There’s nothing I love more than being involved with our student body and staff during the day and through all the different clubs, activities, athletics, and events that we have here at CSH.
You’ll often find me with my family, my wife Amanda (who is also a proud Jeffco Principal), my son Mark, and my daughter Mikelle at these events, as they love spending time at Chatfield as well.
Before becoming principal here I served as the assistant principal in charge of instruction and assessment at CSH, an assistant principal at Westminster High School. I started my career in education as an English and Journalism teacher, and coached Varsity Football and Baseball. I am originally from Chesterton, Indiana, and am a proud Purdue University Alum.
I look forward to getting to know all of our Chargers, and I am so proud to be able to call myself their principal, every day.
Go Chargers!
