I graduated from the University of Tennessee at Martin and studied Music and Business. In addition to the curriculum for my BA in Music, I chose a 40-hour elective plan focused on Business Administration, Marketing, Management, Economics, Accounting, and Business Calculus. I played Tenor Saxophone with the UTM Wind Ensemble and Saxophone Quartet, Trombone with the UTM Skyhawk Marching Band and Basketball Band, and frequently performed Saxophone solos during student recitals. I am an alumnus of Phi Mu Alpha Fraternity.After college, I moved to Knoxville and became an Emergency Medical Dispatcher for Rural/Metro Ambulance Service and Fire Department. After 6 years, I was promoted to Dispatch Supervisor and later was named interim Communications Manager for my last six weeks with the Company. I received the honor of being named Telecommunicator of the Year in 2012. While living in Knoxville, I attended Grace Baptist Church and played saxophone in the worship orchestra.Following my employment with Rural/Metro, I sought a career change and came to Cascade. I began as a Drillers Assistant and worked on a variety of sonic drill rigs. After 6 months of field work, I was reassigned to the role of Administrative Assistant for the Memphis and Huntsville offices. In January 2019, I became Office Manager of the Memphis and Huntsville offices until January 2021, when I transitioned into the role of Regional Estimator for the Southeast Drilling Services.I currently sponsor four children through Compassion International and enjoy advocating for that organization. Overall, I have sponsored five children.
