It has given me the drive and motivation to become a risk taker. Professional baseball has taught me to fail early, fail often, and fail forward, but more importantly, to reflect to become a better leader and person day to day to ensure success in my daily life and as Central’s principal. Joining the Bulldog family has been an exciting experience for my family and myself. The rich traditions, academic excellence and history of Central High School was very intriguing and compelling. The academic opportunities provided for students within Central and SPS was the driving motivation to become part of a rich tradition of excellence.”
