College: Holt attended college at UNC-Chapel Hill, where she received a B.S. degree in science and biology.
Previous jobs: Before coming to Apex, Holt worked in Union County and Wakefield High School as a science teacher. Currently, she teaches both academic and honors biology.
Motivation to become a teacher: “I didn’t originally go to college for teaching. UNC had a teaching program that I decided to join, and I soon discovered that I loved being around people.”
Reason for choosing subject: “I like how you can relate science to the real world. Biology has more relevance to somebody’s life, so it’s easy to make the class relatable and fun.”
