About Me
As an educator and strategist in the communications field, I find it important to grow with technology as audiences diversify their channels of communication.
I am currently employed as the Regional Director of Communications for the American Red Cross Mississippi Region. I was previously employed at Mississippi State Hospital for over 10 years serving as Strategic Planning Director, Human Resources Director and Public Relations Director. In my career, I have worked in education, health care and for one of Mississippi's largest advocacy associations.
I have a master’s degree in communication from MC, a bachelor’s degree in journalism with an emphasis in public relations and a minor in marketing from the University of Southern Mississippi and an associate’s degree from Hinds Community College. I am also a graduate of the Mississippi State University John C. Stennis Institute of Government State Executive Development Institute and the Mississippi Certified Public Manager Program.
I am a Past President of the Southern Public Relations Federation (SPRF), a network of 1,500 public relations professionals from Alabama, Florida, Louisiana and Mississippi. I am also a Past President of the Public Relations Association of Mississippi (PRAM) and the organization’s Central Chapter in Jackson, and the Mississippi Hospital Association's Society for Health Care Marketing and Public Relations.
