and enjoy, Jackson (age 6) and Campbell (age 4). After growing up in North

another hot spot – Ole Miss. I met Tyler there, though we didn’t officially
date, until after college. I enjoyed many years of fun working in Graphic
Design, but am having an even better time soaking up my children. I love doing just
about anything outdoors, including running and water skiing. I have a passion
for painting and working with children. I have learned the best life lessons
from my own kids and my sweet husband. I love MOPs and have been a part of the

women and develop great friendships.
