Physical Education Team

Welcome to P.E. I am very excited to be here at McKeel Academy for my 17th year! I am looking forward to having an EXCELLENT 2024-25 school year! Our goal is to be physically active and explore the world of health, wellness, and self-care.

I am the Varsity Volleyball Coach and enjoy staying active with my 3 kids, who play multiple sports.  My oldest is a recent graduate of McKeel and is attending Georgetown University on a Volleyball scholarship and my younger ones are in 7th grade at MAT and 6th grade at MAC.

I graduated from Lake Gibson High School in 2001.  I earned my Associates from Polk State in 2003, and graduated with my B.A. from Warner University in 2008.  I also played collegiate softball, for both schools, which helped keep me focused throughout my college years!

I pride myself in keeping my focus on "my kids" (students) and trying to do what is best for them. I have high expectations for all of them and love to see them succeed! I look forward to this upcoming school year and working with you. 2024-25 will be an EXCELLENT year!

GO CATS!
