More about me

I was born and raised in North Canton, Ohio. After graduation from high school I attended Kent State University – Stark County Branch for about 1 year.   Married my high school sweetheart and we had two sons together. In 1990 I remarried and moved to Fayetteville, NC where we lived for 4 years. My husband accepted a position in Charlotte, NC and it is here where I fulfilled my lifelong desire to complete my college education. I attended Queens University of Charlotte and graduated magna cum laude in accounting. I have been on staff with PRC as the Director of Finance for the past 11 ½ years. This is a non-profit organization that assists young women in crisis pregnancies. I have two sons, one stepson and three grandsons.
