I was raised in Cooper, Texas where I graduated from high school. I then attended Texas A&M University-Commerce where I graduated with a B.S. in Production Agriculture with a minor in education. I taught Agricultural Sciences at Chapel Hill I.S.D. for 17 years before obtaining my Masters in Education Administration. The next 5 years I served Chapel Hill  as the CTE Director and Assistant High School Principal. Recently my roles have elvoled once again and I will be serving my district as the Director of CTE and Accountability.
