After graduating from Eupora High School, I attended Mississippi State University where I majored in Social Studies Education. In 2004, I completed my Master of Education from Belhaven University and became National Board Certified in 2005. In May 2020, I completed my Ed.S. in Educational Leadership from Belhaven University. I retired after 25 years of teaching. In my spare time, I love to garden, read, and take care of my ducks and chickens and now bees!
