Anderson served as an adjunct professor at Northwest Florida State College, mentoring students who were deciding whether a career in education was for them or not. This experience continued as she served as a mentor teacher to new teachers as well as struggling teachers and was certified as a peer evaluator. She has served on SAC and School Improvement committees and has extensive training in many aspects of technology and was certified as a digital educator.
Anderson said she is greatly appreciative of the many administrators who have mentored her along this path leading to serving in administration, including Dr. Lamar White, Dr. Shelly Arneson, and especially Carolyn McAllister.
