I graduated from DAR High School. I then went on to attend Auburn University where I received my undergraduate degree in Agricultural Business and Economics with a minor in Poultry Science. I got my Master's in Agricultural Education from Alabama A&M, and later I got my Ed.S in Agricultural Education from Auburn University.

I began my teaching career in 2004 at Marshall County School System and have been with Guntersville High School since April 2015.

I have two children; Landen and Allie Reese.

I like spending time with my family, working on the family cattle farm, and hunting.
