Tracing her family history back to eight generations of teachers, education has always been a top priority. The oldest of 5 children in a single mother household encouraged her to do her best in school and follow her family’s tradition of becoming an educator. She received her Master’s from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and became a National Board Certified Teacher. Her proudest moments are when the students return to invite her to their high school graduations.
