I grew up in a small town in Kansas and was a Caney Bullpup all through school. After graduation, I attended and graduated from Pittsburg State University with a degree in Business Administration and Marketing. After graduating, I had three amazing kids and decided that I was meant to be a teacher so I attended Central Missouri State University and received my Bachelor of Education and began teaching middle school students in computers and keyboarding while raising my family. We had a fun opportunity to move to Oklahoma and start a new business so off we went and that was when we officially became BULLDOGS instead of Bullpups with all three of my kids growing up in Minco Schools.  A few years away from teaching brought a lot of adventures in Catastrophic Insurance Adjusting spending time living in New York City, Miami, New Orleans, and Charleston but I was ready to spend more time at home with my kiddos so I jumped at the opportunity to be part of the Minco School systems as a middle school English teacher and now as a Career Tech and computer teacher as well as coaching 5th and 6th grade girls basketball. In my spare time, I help run our family business at Five Star Horseshoeing School, have written a study guide for farriers, and officiate all levels of basketball, volleyball, and softball around the state. I love being a Bulldog!
