I am a native of Berrien County.  I have attended various colleges.  They are  ABAC,  Fort Valley State College, and Troy State University. My teaching career started in 1989. Many years ago, I taught in Meriwether County, where I taught grades third and fourth.  In 2003, I relocated and started teaching for the Ben Hill County Board of Education. I believe that we all have special gifts and talents,  I realize my gift is to work with children.  I love working with children, it gives me great joy to see them grasp concepts!  My philosophy of life is to treat everyone with respect and love regardless of our differences!
