Jerri Ward

Tuscaloosa, AL

My name is Jerri Ward and I am a doctoral student in the Instructional Systems and Workforce Development Program at Mississippi State University. This is my final coursework semester in the doctoral program and I am looking forward to completing my doctorate in December 2015. I currently reside and work in Tuscaloosa, AL. I moved to Tuscaloosa in June of 2008 after I accepted a position at the University of Alabama as the Data Systems and Web Applications coordinator for A.C.C.E.S.S. (Alabama online high school). I’m also an instructor for the college of continuing studies.

I am the youngest of three children and I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. Especially after the passing of my father a few months ago. I value the time that is spent with my family and friends and realize that it is something you can never get back once its gone. I also enjoy working with people in general, traveling, working with young people(I am the youth director at my church), and volunteering my time to individuals in need. I hope to accomplish great things in life. Blessings!
