I have been a licensed optician for 10 years and truly love helping people see.  I have worked for Eye Care on the Ridge for 6 years and love being part of a great team and family.  I am married to the love of my life and we have three amazing teenagers.  When I am not in the office I enjoy spending time cooking for my family and friends.

 I just recently moved to the Hillsville area from Charlotte NC.  My degree is in Elementary Ed from BYU in Utah.  Watching children grow through education is very rewarding to me.  Now, I look forward to watching people improve through their vision.  I feel very blessed to be a part of this team.  My family consists of 7 wonderful children (including a sweet daughter-in-law), a granddaughter, and a kind husband who brought his children and grandchildren into my life.

I graduated from Big Creek High School in War, WV and National Business College in Roanoke, VA with an accounting degree.  I've worked in the medical field for over 30 years, mostly in a business office setting.  When I moved to Wytheville to be closer to family, I was fortunate to get a job with Eye Care on the Ridge.  I enjoy working with the public and helping people.  Eye Care on the Ridgehas given me the opportunity to learn new skills and to do something I enjoy.
