Meet the Teacher
Hi! :) Welcome to my website! My name is Natalie Perkins Barker. I am a Career Tech teacher at Jefferson Davis High School in Montgomery, AL. I teach two different courses at JD: Business Technology Applications and Multimedia Design.
As for a little background, I grew up just down the road in Wetumpka, AL. At Wetumpka High School, my connection with the Career Tech world began. I took three years of Marketing classes, was a Co-Op student, and was very involved in DECA. In fact, in 1997 (my Sophomore year), I was a Top 10 Finalist in Apparel and Accessories Marketing (Associate Level) at National DECA Competition. I graduated from Wetumpka High School in 1999 and moved to Birmingham to attend Birmingham-Southern College. At BSC, I majored in Business Administration and was very involved with a variety of student organizations: Zeta Tau Alpha, Cheerleaders, Diamond Girls, and Quest 2. I also completed an internship in 2002 at my Alma Mater (WHS) to help get the students ready for District DECA Competition. I graduated from Birmingham-Southern in 2003 and moved to Atlanta, GA for my first job with Project E Clothing. At Project E, I handled all Public Relations and Marketing efforts, which mainly focused on Product Placement in newspapers, magazines, movies, tv shows, and on musicians. Although my job at Project E was super fun, I had a little tug at my heart to do something more--something to make a difference. This led me to go back to school, at Brenau University, to get my Teacher Certification. From then on, I spent the last four years teaching Middle School in Smyrna, GA at Griffin Middle School and in Williamston, SC at Palmetto Middle School. This summer, I moved back to Sweet Home Alabama and have finally been promoted to High School. :)
