A trip to Charleston!
Where did you grow up, and how’d you land in Charlotte?
I was born and raised in tiny little Rhode Island (yes, another Yankee coming to overcrowd the city..sorry!!!). I also attended the University of Rhode Island. My older brother lives in Charlotte, and I’d been here a couple of times for work travel, so I knew I loved the city. On a whim in 2021, I decided I was done with the cold and wanted a change of scenery. I miss the ocean A LOT, but overall, I’m really happy with my decision to come here.
Any volunteer activities you’re crazy about?
My husband and I have pitched in with the South End Rail Trail Cleanup a few times and helped out with the efforts to aid Western NC during Hurricane Helene. I’m also really interested in getting more involved with local animal shelters since so many of them are overcrowded In Charlotte
What would be impossible for you to give up?
My headphones! I am listening to music or an audio book at all times
