ABOUT ME
I am from a small town (no stop lights! Yes, I am a true country girl) in upstate South Carolina and moved to Myrtle Beach in 2006. I am married and have two children ages 26 and 20. My husband and I decided to move back to the upstate after 15 years at the beach (we missed our family). I love traveling and spending time with my family. I graduated from Gardner-Webb University for my undergraduate degree and received my master’s in mental health counseling from Webster University. I also received a master’s degree in school counseling from Liberty University.
I am so excited to meet all my new Bulldog family. Please stop by guidance to say “Hello”!!
