Living in East TN-Women’s History Month Part Two
Living in East TN-Women’s History Month Part One
Dr. Alpha Alexander
THIS SATURDAY: I had the honor of sitting down with Dr. Alpha Alexander, and I walked away in awe of both her accomplishments and her humility. From helping open doors for women in sports to representing this country around the world, her story is really about perseverance, purpose, and making space for others. Her connection to THE Arthur Ashe left me speechless.
