Hello! My name is Dr. Kirkland, and I am grateful for the opportunity to serve as the MCVS Math Instructional Coach. I grew up right here in Monroe County and graduated from Tellico Plains High School in 1997.

When I’m not at work, I enjoy spending time with my wife, Dr. Teresa Kirkland, our three children — Jacob, Karli, and Emma — and our cat, Sprinkles.

A few of my favorite things:

• Color: Blue

• Food: Steak

• Drink: Coffee

• Candy: Anything with peanut butter

• Hobbies: Spending time with my family and treasure hunting
