A product of Houston County Schools. I received an undergraduate degree at Lander University in psychology. This was followed by a Master of Arts in Teaching at Georgia College. I spent the first three years of teaching in the English Department at Warner Robins High School before moving into the same role at Perry High School for five years prior to transitioning into my current position. We are passionate here in the PHS Media Center about equipping students with essential literacy skills, habits, and attitudes to help them successfully navigate life and its challenges and triumphs both in adolescence and later in adulthood.
