Virginia Reynolds Barnes

Since graduation from High School, I went on to graduate from Keystone (Jr.) College and then pursued a second Associates Degree in Hotel/Restaurant Management from Johnson & Wales University in Charleston, SC. From there I transferred to Johnson & Wales University to earn my Bachelor's Degree in Hospitality Sales and Meeting Management. After graduation I moved to Montauk, Long Island where I worked in the Hopitality industry for 15 years. During that time I earned my NY Real Estate License and ESL (English as a Second Language) Certificate. I resigned from the hospitality industry and teaching ESL to purchase a taxi company with my husband. We sold the company after five years and moved to Metro Atlanta. I currently work as a Corporate Legal Executive for a home improvement company located in ten States. A few weeks ago I returned to school via online classes to earn my Paralegal Degree.
