AES Staff Directory

I grew up in Annandale and went to Bendix Elementary (now called Annandale Elementary).  My elementary principal, Arlen Johnson, and I shared the same birthday and he would invite me to his office on our birthday to have a donut.  My family lived in Annandale through my freshman year in high school and I was at Annandale high school for the first year of the new building until we moved to Monticello, where I graduated from high school.  I went on to attend Northwestern College in Roseville, and attained my elementary education degree and met my wife Laurie.

During the summer of 2016, I was fortunate to receive the principal job at Annandale Elementary.  Since then, I have been consistently amazed at the work of the students, the dedication of the staff and the support from the community.  I consider it a true blessing to be in the prominent school district of Annandale.  

Laurie and I reside in Annandale school district and have three girls.  They love Annandale and all it has to offer. Laurie teaches math at the middle school and we both come from families of educators. We definitely talk about education when we get together.

I look forward to all of the success our students will have!
