You will catch me on Facebook more than on this website! I will get back with you quicker if you hit me up on facebook!!! Life I graduated from Norfolk State University with a degree in Mass Communications/Broadcasting and a minor in Political Science in 1993. I have worked in the broadcasting field at area tv and radio stations since 1990. I have also worked in the Birmingham, Alabama television market. After almost 11 years of working in Broadcasting, I decided that it was time for a career change! So i went back to school at Old Dominion University to get my teaching license. I currently teach 6th grade in the Portsmouth Public School System during the school year and and I am also working on my PhD in education. I have run into children of a lot of Western Branch graduates!! My life after high school has been about the same as others. I have had my share of ups and downs, life wise, career wise and relationship wise. The biggest change I had to deal with was being told that I had Type 1 diabetes (insulin dependent) shortly after high school. I am on insulin for the rest of my life, but I have to what I have to do! As you can see from my profile, I have worked at several different places. No I was not fired from them, I do not have a problem working hard and/or working several jobs at one time to get what I need or want!

I did not have a lot of exciting memories of high school. I was just glad that it was over. I do remember graduation day. How hot it was (99 degrees) and that it was outside and it rained in the middle of graduation (it started raining on the letter "Q")! I also have fond memories of hanging out with Kim White Washington, Danielle Marshall, Terri Gaines, Barbara Taylor Johnson, Renita Walker, and Crystal Jones (rest in peace) and all the fun we had in ROTC class. And can't forget those ROTC christmas parties! College I graduated Norfolk State with a degree in Mass Communication...Life at NSU...what can I say... the band:), the parties, hanging out in the student union building...staying in Twin Towers, and people showed up at the football game just to see the half time show then leave... Now I am going back to school to finish work on my PhD. I will be finish in December 2014! Wish me luck. Workplace After college, I was luckier than most. I found a job a mere six months after I graduated. I started working as an Assignment Editor at WAVY (Channel 10). In that position, I developed story ideas, assigned stories to reporters, assisted the producers in researching information and writing stories. I did that for three years, then I moved to Birmingham, AL where I worked at the Number one station in the state of Alabama, WBRC (Channel 6) doing the same thing as I did at WAVY. I took a break from broadcast news and worked at Cox C...Expand for more
