About Dr. DunnI am product of Wake County Public Schools, a graduate from Needham B. Brought High School. I love learning and sharing what I know. Since I was in middle school, I always enjoyed my business classes. My high school business teacher, Mrs. Hooper was an influence on my decision to be a business educator. When I was younger, I enjoyed business “stuff” and knew I wanted to be a “busy business person" when I grew up.
EducationI am a proud alumni of Fayetteville State University, (Bronco Pride!) with a Bachelors Degree in Marketing Education. I earned my Masters Degree in School Administration from North Carolina State University. My doctoral degree in Educational Leadership was earned from University of the Cumberlands in Williamsburg, KY.

Quote: It's Not About Position, but Empowerment
"Our influence has less to do with our position or title than it does with the life we live. It's not about position, but production. It is not the education we get, but the empowerment we give, that makes a difference to others". - John C. Maxwell
