An award-winning journalist, Mary covered the state as a news reporter for WPTF/WQDR and Capitol Broadcasting. Upon moving from Raleigh to Apex in the mid-90s—when the population was under 15,000! —Mary left behind the fast-paced news world for a new career: Mom. Mary is the proud mother of Alexander and Andrew.
