About The Teacher

Bachelor Degree: Rust College

Masters Degree: Belhaven University, Union University

Certification Areas: English Language Arts 7-12, Business Ed. 7-12 and Social Studies 7-12

I am a National Board Certified teacher in English Language Arts- Early Adolescents

Experience:

- Taught 8th grade ELA (6 years)

Even though I have lived in Olive Branch for the past 20 years, I was born in Jackson, MS. After I graduated from Rust College, I remained in north MS.

I have been married for almost 28 years (Sept. 2022). We have two sons. We are active members of Brown Baptist Church, where I'm a Sunday School teacher as well.

I enjoy reading, cooking- especially when trying new recipes or remaking restaurant dishes and quiet time outside. My favorite foods are pizza with a salad, cookies and a hot cup of coffee or tea.
