Hello, I’m Shentika Nickens. I earned my degree in Biology with a minor in Public Health from the University of Southern Mississippi. With over 11 years of experience as a special education educator, I currently serve as the SPED department chair. I’m proud to call Mississippi my home and chose a career in education to help students recognize and reach their full potential. When I’m not working, you’ll likely find me indulging in retail therapy or exploring new places to travel.
