She is an entrepreneur, and has as a Georgia Work Ready Administrator, acting as a direct public liaison for the Georgia Work Ready Partnership and contributing to the successful certification of over 1,500 examinees in the Clayton County area; as a consultant for Clayton Statue University; and as Regional Lead for the Microsoft Certified Trainer Program.
