I completed my Bachelor Degree in Early Childhood Education at Valdosta State University. After teaching a year, I returned to Valdosta State University and complete my Masters Degree in Early Childhood Education. Twelve years later, I enrolled back in school at NOVA Southeastern University and completed my Specialist Degree and Doctorate Degree in Educational Leadership. I also attended RESA courses to earn an Endorsement to my Certification for Gifted Education.

This will be my 28th year teaching Third Grade. I have served on numerous school committees, served as Grade Level Chair, and served on the School Leadership Team during my career as an educator.
