Education

* I attended school from 1st through 12th grade in Olive Branch.

* I went to Northwest Community College for 2 years, then Ole Miss for another 2 years.  I graduated with a degree in Elementary Education.

*  I taught for 3 years until I returned to Ole Miss to earn my masters degree in Educational Leadership.

Experience

* I started teaching 5th grade at OBIS in 1997.

* I taught for 3 years and returned to Ole Miss to get a masters degree in Educational Leadership.

* After earning this degree, I taught 5th grade at OBIS for several more years, until getting a position as assistant principal at the newly opening Overpark Elementary.  I was assistant principal for a year and a half.  I left my position there to return to teaching.  I spent the other half of the school year as a homebound teacher in the district.

* I was fortunate enough to return to OBIS for a 3rd time and now I am here at CTCE!

* Overall, this is my 23rd year in education.
