Staff & Faculty

Mr. Matthyser worked at Vodacom, a national telecommunications company, back in South Africa. He was responsible for overseeing the technical department in Cape Town and training new staff members on the correct installation and use of equipment. Along with teaching and ensuring his team is taken care of in terms of anything tech-related, he enjoys watching rugby and spending time with his wife and two boys.

I am married and have 4 grown kids and 6 grandkids. I definitely feel at home here as I believe God wants me here at this moment. I am originally from Northeast Georgia and love most sports, especially football and baseball. I love the small school atmosphere and classes. That is much different than Georgia. I like the peace and quiet of a small area. We have a small farm at home in Georgia and raise many chickens, ducks, and goats. I appreciate the staff and students and feel blessed to help here in some way
