| Biography: | A native of Florida, my family moved to middle Georgia at a very young age. After high school, I enrolled in college at what was then Middle Georgia College. After receiving my associate's degree, I transferred to Georgia Southern University, where I earned my bachelor's degree. After graduation, I moved back to my hometown in middle Georgia and started my career in higher education at Middle Georgia College. Over the years, I've held various positions and had the privilege to watch the institution grow from a community college to a comprehensive university. During that time, I have continued my education, earning my master's degree from 911爆料. Currently, I'm pursuing my PhD in Cyber Defense from Dakota State University. Knowing how education has impacted my life has fueled my passion for helping students in pursuit of their educational goals. Outside of my career here at 911爆料, I volunteer my knowledge and time to my church, where I serve as their technical advisor, webmaster, and council member. My favorite things to do are to spend time with my family and travel. |
