Profile of Expertise: I have a Bachelor’s Degree from Oklahoma State University in Vocational Home Economics and a Master’s Degree from the University of Central Oklahoma in Educational Competencies.  My first real job out of college was with OSU Cooperative Extension Service in Choctaw County.  I served as a 4-H educator for 5 years.  I then taught Home Economics, Child Care or Family and Consumer Sciences in several public school systems the next 19 ½ years.   Nutrition has always been one of my favorite topics to teach.  I have tried to stay abreast of new information.  I especially like teaching the six essential nutrients and the foods from which they come.  I also have a passion for helping others. The following counties are included in the Okmulgee Unit: Muskogee, Okmulgee, and Okfuskee.
