Jamie has had more careers than children but still considers wife and mom the role she was born for. She has been married to her high school sweetheart Jared for thirteen years. Together they have Ben, 11, Jack, 9 and Lauren, 3. Jamie grew up in the very small community of Buras, but has lived in the Baton Rouge area since 1996. Jamie attended LSU law school and practiced law for about two years before becoming a stay at home mom, then later making a career change to professional counseling. She now works part-time as a marriage, family and individual counselor.  She is also a Designer with Keep Collective, a fun career which allows her to express her creative side. Jamie and her family are active members of her church Live Oak Methodist, and volunteer there in several areas. She enjoys cooking the foods of her cajun heritage, and in large enough quantities to feed the neighborhood.
