She has been a mentor, life coach, youth group leader, and private educational consultant with extensive experience in the fields of college counseling, tutoring, standardized test preparation, and Christian counseling. Her first novel, The Right Person, was published in 2010. At that time, she program director of JBG Educational Group, a company of about 30 educators who work closely with young adults and their families on everything under the academic blanket.
