Biography

It all started with a spark of curiosity about honey bees and an exciting beekeeping class back in 2017! My interest immediately soared, leading to purchasing three small hives, and I was captivated by these incredible little creatures working tirelessly for their colony.

Before I knew it, our bee family expanded to nearly fifty hives across three counties! What began as a hobby quickly became an adventure, immersed thirty to forty hours a week. We even started selling our surplus honey, queens, and nucleus hives, making every trip to the bee yard a new and exhilarating experience!

During the winter off-season, I blend my passion for beekeeping with woodworking, crafting, and painting wooden hive boxes, lids, and frames, all in preparation for the bustling spring!

As an enthusiastic member of the beeping community, I proudly served as Vice President of the Coweta County Beekeepers Association for two terms, 2022 and 2023, and a member of the Georgia Beekeepers Association and other local groups. I achieved journeyman-level beekeeping and share my experience through public speaking engagements and with mentees.
