About me
Personal Bio
My name is Georgette Jones and I have been an instructor here at Miller-Motte since 2013. I grew up on a farm with my grandmother; therefore, I consider myself a country girl at heart. I have a passion for technology and all of the things that it allows one to do. I love traveling, gardening, writing, and spending time with my family. I just completed my first animated children’s book for the iPad, so I am very excited about getting that published in the iBookstore in the next several weeks. This was a pet project and I learned a lot in the process, since I had very little experience in this technology. My next goal is to develop a read along app for the book.
Brief Bio and Professional Experience
I have over 19 years of enterprise IT experience, working in both the private and government sector, for major corporations such as Hewlett Packard, AT&T, Proctor and Gamble, UPS, King and Spalding Law Firm, Savannah River Site nuclear plant, and Georgia-Pacific to name a few. The technology field is so vast and I have been blessed to work in just about every area at some point in my career. I currently do IT consulting with one of the largest technology companies in the world in the area of Storage Area Networks.
I am also an Adjunct Professor at the University of Phoenix and Miller-Motte Technical College. I facilitate several business and technology courses on-ground and on-line. I enjoy teaching and feel this is what I am passionate about. I think I now truly can understand the statement, if you enjoy what you do, you will feel like you never work a day in your life. I also enjoy sharing my knowledge with my students and hope that I am able to make a positive impact on their lives.
I received a Bachelor of Science in Management Information Systems from the University of South Carolina, a MBA from Keller Graduate School of Management, and currently pursuing a PhD in Information Technology from Capella University. I have three additional classes left in my PhD coursework.
