About Me
I educate people about the importance of developing healthy eating habits, how to make a budget and how to shop smart. Knowing how to budget food dollars helps ensure families have enough food to last throughout the month. I love encouraging people to make shopping lists and engage in physical activity. I hold a bachelor’s degree in home economics and a master’s degree in family and consumer sciences, both from the University of Central Arkansas.
