I was born in Athens, GA but moved to Alabama when I was in grade school.  I graduated from Oneonta High School and attended the University of Alabama at Birmingham.  I graduated with a degree in Biology, minoring in Chemistry. 

I spent 6 years as the manager of a local vitamin store when I decided I wanted to become a teacher.  I attended graduate school at the University of Montevallo where I recieved my Master's degree in Secondary Education.

I spent the first five years of my career teaching Pre-AP Chemistry and AP Chemistry at McAdory High School.  I look forward to becoming part of the Thompson family.  Warriors #1!
