"I have been coaching in Champaign Unit 4 High Schools for fourteen years. I graduated from Wilmer Hutchins High School in Dallas, Texas and the University of Illinois in Champaign, Illinois. From 1993-1996 I coached the Central Maroons, from 1996 to the present I've been coaching at Centennial. I took over the girls head job in 2004. I have been a part of five girl's conference championships, two sectional titles and eight twin city titles. I take pride in having coached eight big twelve 100 meter champions, seven 4x100 meter relay champions, a state champ in the 100 meters and 50 meters and having athletes to finish in every spot from 1-9 in state.

I am a two-time 200 meter world champion and my philosophy is that every young person may not score at state or conference but they can score at practice and life. "
