She holds a Bachelor's Degree and a Master's Degree in Biology in Education from Arkansas State University. While living in Arkansas, she taught in the Clover Bend and Tuckerman public school districts several years. She then made a career change and began to teach in Christian educational institutions, Crowley's Ridge Academy for two years, Crowley's Ridge College for five years.
While on the faculty of Crowley's Ridge College, she was the Woman's Coordinator for their Comprehensive Evangelism Program, organizing and sending "Campaigns for Christ" groups to New England, Panama, Canada and China. On weekends she organized and conducted nearly one-hundred "1,000 for Christ" Ladies' Rallies. In each rally, a thousand persons were taught the Gospel using Bible correspondence courses. She also coordinated "Target-A-Nation" evangelism workshops in which missionaries, campaign workers and interested Christians assembled to learn the peoples and cultures of the nations and how to plan to reach each nation with the Gospel.
She then relocated to Southern California, continued her education by taking courses from California State University and the University of California at various campuses in the evening and on Saturdays, while she taught in Normandie Christian School in Los Angeles and later for Los Angeles Unified School District. When she retired from teaching, she pursued her dream of becoming a writer.
Also, after her retirement she became heavily involved in Friendspeak, a part of Let's Start Talking program, teaching the Gospel to international students using Friendspeak materials. She taught students from China, South Korea, Mongolia, Turkey, and Thailand.
As a teacher of Biblical women and women's role in evangelism, she has taught at Retreats, Special Luncheons, Creative Writing Seminars, and Soul Winning Workshops at Crowley's Ridge College, Biola University, Pepperdine University, and was the Keynote speaker at various women's conventions and conferences in many U.S. states and Canada.
