American Indian/Alaskan Native
Georgia Special Emphasis Program Representative
I am the American
Indian/Alaska Native Special Emphasis Program Manager and Tribal Liaison for
USDA/NRCS in Georgia. I am of Creek descent and a member of the Muscogee Creek
Nation, which are headquartered in Okmulgee, Oklahoma.
My career with NRCS started
in 1983. For the past 24 years, I have served as the Soil Conservation
Technician in Miller County, in Southwest Georgia. I was appointed as AI/AN SEPM in January 2005 and assumed the role of Tribal Liaison in January 2006. I
am active member of NRCS’s Southeast Region American Indian Workgroup and the
Georgia Civil Rights Advisory Committee. There are currently three State
Recognized Tribes in Georgia; The Lower Muskogee Creeks in Southwest GA., the
Georgia Band of Eastern Cherokee in Northern GA., & the Cherokee of Georgia
Tribal Council in Southeast GA.
(See Map) I enjoy working with the tribes and helping
tribal members to conserve our natural resources for future generations.
