FROM A FAMILY DEEPlY COMMITTED TO PUBLIC SERVICE.

Growing up in a family deeply committed to public service, I've dedicated my life to serving people and advocating for our communities' well-being and rights.


As a business owner in the Lowcountry community, I've served as a vital connector and advocate, deeply invested in our neighborhoods' prosperity. I've spent countless hours sharing my expertise to empower residents with knowledge about the local real estate market and advocating for policies that support affordable housing and sustainable development. Additionally, I play a crucial role in promoting our local businesses, driving economic growth, and enhancing overall quality of life.


Throughout my career, I've been elected to and served on numerous committees and boards, all with the goal of empowering citizens to succeed. I'm passionate about rolling up my sleeves to implement projects and programs that support these goals. One of my proudest roles was serving on the Board for Dress for Success, an organization dedicated to empowering women to achieve economic independence.

Advocate. Servant Leader. Wife. Mother

I've also dedicated significant time to serving in school organizations and planning committees, advocating for the needs of students and families, and collaborating with school staff and the community to support educational initiatives.


In addition to my community involvement, I am an active member of the Realtor Women's Council and the Charleston Trident Realtor Association. These memberships have provided me with valuable opportunities to network, collaborate, and stay informed about industry trends and best practices.


A graduate of Goose Creek High School, I earned my bachelor's degree from Charleston Southern University. As a founding owner of The Adkins Group real estate team, brokered by Changing Lives Forever Home Solutions, I've had the privilege of using my skills and resources to make a positive impact. Additionally, as a member of Jack and Jill Incorporated, I've donated my time and talents to numerous boards, nonprofit organizations, and charitable causes.


I am married to Reginald Adkins, and we are the proud parents of 4 beautiful and intelligent daughters.
