Bio

I am a long-time resident of Carroll County and a 2000 graduate of Central High School. I attended Central from Kindergarten through 12th grade, and I'm proud to work in the same building where I received the foundation of my education. I received my bachelors, master’s, and specialist degree in Early Childhood Education from the University of West Georgia. I have my Educational Leadership degree from Kennesaw State University. I started my career in education in 2005 as a 4th grade teacher at Ithica Elementary in Villa Rica, GA. I also taught 8th grade at Bay Springs Middle where I coached basketball. I’ve since served as Assistant Principal at Temple Elementary along with Central Elementary before serving in my current role as Principal of CES.  

I am married to my wonderful wife Kristen Huckeba and am blessed to have three outstanding children; Emery, Blair, and Luke. There's something really special about working in the same school that your children attend, which I've been very fortunate to do here at CES. I am a member of The Church at Pleasant Hill and enjoy working outdoors, as well as playing and watching a variety of sports.  Go Dawgs! 

It is an honor to lead the school that is in the same community that you live in. The Central Community is a family and I’m thankful to be a part of it. I’m proud of what this school has accomplished and am even more excited to positively impact the students of CES in years to come.
