I am a certified Family and Consumer Science teacher with over 17 years experience teaching courses in Foods and Nutrition and Culinary Arts.
During my professional career I have worked in the food and culinary industry as a private caterer and head chef at First United Methodist Church. On a personal note, I have been cooking and entertaining all of my life starting with entering cooking contests and competitions as a 4-H member and continuing through high school and college. I enjoy helping others learn to love to be creative in the kitchen and expand their knowledge of food, cooking techniques, nutrition and making positive lifestyle changes through culinary arts.
On a personal note, I am married, have three sons--James, Will and Lynn--, two grandchildren, and a Basset Hound named Flash. I enjoy spending time not only in the kitchen but also outdoors on beautiful Lake Barkley. I love to travel and try new restaurants to expand my culinary experience.
