Why Whitefield: I was attracted to Whitefield Academy because I whole-heartedly believe in the purpose and the mission statement of this school, specifically the values of a Christ-centered community, family and servant leadership. My core values directly align with this organization’s values and I feel so blessed to be surrounded by passionate and loving like-minded individuals who live and breathe the same values as me.
Why I love my job: I am so grateful that I get to call Whitefield Academy my professional home. Every day, I get the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of others for the better, whether that is our students, parents, grandparents, faculty, staff, or donors. This community is so supportive and amazing, and it’s exactly what I was praying for my life.
My Family: Outside of Whitefield, I spend my time with my beloved family (including my two sweet pups), volunteering with Chastain Horse Park’s therapeutic riding program, and the Make-A-Wish Foundation, and adventuring in the great outdoors.
