I graduated from East Central University with a Bachelors of Science in Mathematics in 1995. I have taught High School Math at Stratford for 25 years. I am married to Michael Gollihare (also known as "Fuzz") who is currently County Commissioner of Garvin County District 3. Our son, Jacob, graduated from Stratford High School in 2017 and is a Senior at Oklahoma State University majoring in Animal Science.
