Educational History:

I graduated from Clarksville High School in 1989. GO TIGERS! My favorite actvity in high school was Drill Team and talking to my friends! HAHA! I enjoyed school. I had wonderful teachers and our entire class was very close and we still are through Facebook.

I attended college at Tyler Junior College, Paris Junior College, and at East Texas State University, in Texarkana (now Texas A&M) where I earned my Bachelor of Science in English with a Minor in Interdisciplinary Studies. I completed my Teacher Education courework at Texas A&M University in Commerce, TX.

Personal Info

Personal Information:

I have been a Jazzercise instructor for 10 years. I love to search for arrowheads, fossils, agate rocks, and minerals around the North Sulphur River and at Pat Mayes lake. I have been involved in Paris Community Theatre for 20 years. We were in the rehearsal process of Caberet in March of this year, but had to stop due to Covid restrictions. I enjoy cooking, doing home improvements, paniting, sewing, and believe it or not, I collect antique and vintage buttons! My newest addiction is TIKTOK!
