Biography

I grew up just outside of Wilmington, NC and I’m a beach gal all the way. I attended a small private high school in NC and then attended NC State University. While in college, I became involved early on in clubs and activities and sporting events and genuinely enjoyed every day of my college career. I am married to my awesome husband, a college professor, and we have 3 wonderful daughters, 3 great sons-in-law, and 3 precious grandchildren. I love to travel with all the family (especially on a cruise ship) and love spending lazy days on the beach!
