I am a native of the great state of Georgia, but have called the sunshine state my home for the last 23 years.  I attended the Univesity of Florida for the first two years of college, then transferred back home to the University of Georgia where I completed both a Bachelor's and Master's degree in education.  While in college, I competed as a Gator and later a Bulldog in both cross country and track.  I later met my husband, Macks, while we were both coaching track at UGA.  You can imagine that the Georgia/Florida game is a win-win for me!  Macks and I are the proud parents of Marshall and Molly who both attend the University of Florida.  Since most of my money goes to UF now, I have to say....Go Gators!  When I am not in the classroom, I like to spend my time exercising, gardening and traveling.  

It is my hope to inspire each studnet to be kind, work hard, and have fun each day!
