Who or what has been a source of inspiration for you?
I am a huge John Maxwell fan, and his books have been an inspiration to me over the years.
Do you have a favorite quote?
“Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass. It’s about learning to dance in the rain.”
What’s your “go-to” first thing in the morning?
Sweet tea.
Which is the last book you read?
How Full is Your Bucket? by Tom Rath & Don Clifton.
Which source of news do you prefer — print, online, TV or radio?
TV.
What’s an alternate path you might have taken if things had played out differently?
I can’t recall ever wanting to be anything other than an educator.
Have you ever been mentored or mentored someone else?
I have had many mentors over the course of my career, and I am so thankful for their influence. My hope is that in some small or large way I have reciprocated that by having a positive impact on those around me.

Anytime of the day other than mornings. Mornings are my least favorite time.
Is your leadership style more hands-on or hands-off?
Hands-on!
