Throughout my childhood,I lived and was educated in school systems in North Carolina and Virginia. As a child, along with my family, I lived in several towns in North Carolina (Wadesboro, Hamlet, Lumberton, Lilesville), Virginia (Richmond and Norfolk), and the District of Columbia. Following high school graduation from Bowman Senior High, I graduated from Livingstone College with a BA in English and married my college sweetheart.

In addition to a BA in English, I hold a Masters of Education; Masters of Divinity; certitifications in Reading Education, Curriculum and Instruction, and Educational Leadership; and a Doctorate in Divinity.

My husband and I are members of the First Baptist Church in Chapel Hill. In addition to being active in church, I am also an active member of the Orange County Human Relations Commission, local Ministerial Alliance, local NAACP and other educational organizations. We are the parents of one son, daugher-in-law and three grandchildren.
