The village that poured into me helped shape who I am—and now, I’m honored to pour back into the next generation. 💙💛

I’m excited to kick off my Elementary School Tour throughout my home town, Georgetown County, connecting with students, and reminding them that where you come from does not limit where you can go. 😌✨
