Hi! I am so happy that you have an interest in Marketing and have decided to enroll in our wonderful program! I have been teaching Marketing since 2001 and I absolutely love teaching and the opportunities that our students can take advantage of. I have lived in Alabama my entire life and I am a graduate of Auburn University. After graduating, I got married to my college sweetheart and have been married since 2001! My husband, Shane Clay, is a Captain at The Columbus Fire Department. Right before I got married I entered the corporate world and really enjoyed it, but decided that my heart was pulling me elsewhere. I got a teaching job within a few days {it was just meant to be!} and went back to Auburn to get my Masters in Business/Marketing Education. I now have two wonderful kids, Ava and Caden, been married and teaching 18 years and I work with one of my best friends, Mrs. Styers! We both are looking forward to another FUN and rewarding year! We both love to show students ways to set themselves apart from the crowd and truly feel comfortable when marketing themselves to colleges and employers.
