I have worked in the field of communication/public relations for many years. In my most recent position I served as communication director for Georgia-Cumberland Conference of Seventh-day Adventists. I have worked in public relations for La Sierra University, South Florida College, Washington Adventist University, AdventHealth as well as a construction company. I am married to Jeff Watson who works as a senior project manager for Microsoft. We have three children, Jake and Olivia Fisher, and Sofie Watson. Jake works at 88.3 The Journey, Olivia is a student at Southern Adventist University, and Sofie works for Fox News.
For fun I enjoy hiking, exploring new places and old buildings, travel, exercise, and baking yummy vegan food. Yes, this is possible. I have worked as a leadership coach for many years and enjoy that process. My roles in leadership began at age 25. This prompted me to look for training to grow my leadership skills. Thankfully growth is still happening, and I love it. I really enjoy SWAU, my students, and my comm team.
