I am originally from Florence, Alabama.  I graduated from The University of Alabama with a Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting.  I obtained my CPA (certified public accountant) as well as my Master’s in Management from UAH and worked in accounting until my son was born.

While staying home with my children, I obtained my Master’s in Education from Alabama A&M University.  In 2006, I finished my Master’s in Gifted Education from the University of South Alabama.  This is my twelfth year to teach Gifted Education.

I have been married for 25 years to Tim. He is a government contractor at NASA.  We have two children. Daniel is 22 and Grace Ann is 21. Daniel is a baseball player for the Philadelphia Phillies.  Go Phillies!  Grace Ann is a senior cheerleader at The University of Alabama.  ROLL TIDE!!!
