Who is someone you admire
and why?
The person I admire the most is my dad.
He is a hard-working man that taught
me that you have to work for what you
get in life. He taught me that I can
achieve anything I want as long as I put
in a good day’s work to earn it. He also
taught me that I should never let the fact
that I am female in a predominantly
male field keep me from striving for and
achieving the goals I set for myself. That
piece of advice has always stuck with
me and pushed me to always do better.
It paid off because I am now the captain
of this department.
If you could give one piece of advice
to a young person, what would it be?
Pick a career you love. If you love what
you do and love who you do it for, you
never really have to “work” a day in your
life. You will be proud of the work you do
and happy to be able to do it.
LIFE CHANGES
AND SO DO YOUR
INSURANCE NEEDS.

What is your favorite thing about
the City of Pearl?
The people. The people in this city are
ready, willing and able to step up and
help a person in need. The unity in this
city is incomparable.
What is your favorite thing about
Rankin County?
My favorite thing about Rankin County
is the comradery. The law enforcement
agencies in this county work together
like a well-oiled machine. As an administrator,
this is a paramount because we
always know that help is coming.
