I am a native of Baldwin County and reside in Fairhope, Alabama on the beautiful Eastern Shore of Mobile Bay.  I am the proud parent of two grown children, Oliver and Katie.  

My hobbies include gardening, painting, and furniture restoration.  Upon retirement, I hope to visit some of the native countries of students I have had the pleasure of serving throughout my 17+ years as an English as a Second Language Teacher.  My blood runs orange and blue ( War Eagle!), and I am an avid fan of SEC football.  When time permits, I enjoy projects refurbishing my 1907 historical cottage on the bluff in Fairhope.
