About me

I am different than other candidates based upon my personal and professional experience. I served in the US Army Reserve for 10 years and have earned a Bachelor's of Science (Alabama State University), Master's of Science (Auburn University at Montgomery) and a Juris Doctorate (Birmingham School of Law). My professional experience includes ten years with the Alabama Education Association as a UniServ Director, six years as a Human Resources Officer and Chief of Staff, and a little more than eight years as a Deputy Council Administrator. Across my career, I have played an active role in addressing complex issues like wage and hour disputes, contract negotiations, compliance, grant writing, reduction in force, policy development, crisis management, and research and evaluation.
