One of the most wonderful things about being involved in secondary school-based agricultural education is the opportunity to interact with epically amazing individuals.

She graduated from Penn State in 1997 with a Bachelor's of Science in Agricultural and Extension Education and in 2005 with a Master's of Science in Agricultural and Extension Education.

Her cooperating teacher was Mr. Ron Frederick at Twin Valley HS in 1997. She was the agriscience teacher at Cumberland Perry Vocational Technical School the 1997-98 school year, at Big Spring High School from 1998-1999, and for the past 14 years at Greenwood High School.
