Jackie grew up in Virginia Beach, VA and graduated from William and Mary where she studied accounting. She met her husband through work at Ernst and Young, LLP and they moved to Sacramento, California from 1995-2021. Upon becoming empty-nesters and subsequent retirement in 2021, they moved to Duck, NC where they had a rental home and made it their permanent residence.

Jackie took up tennis when one of her daughters played during high school.  She currently plays on several USTA teams in the Outer Banks and loves the sport and the opportunity to meet new people.

When not playing tennis she loves to be on the beach and enjoys listening to live music at all the great local establishments.
