Jayme Sherrod lives in a suburb of Raleigh, North Carolina with her wife and their two young children. Prior to motherhood, Jayme worked as a Registered Nurse and taught pre-licensure nursing students primarily in the oncology setting. She completed her PhD in Nursing in 2019 but ultimately decided to leave academic nursing education in response to her new role as a parent. Jayme has a deep desire to forever be learning and teaching on both big and small scales and believes that raising kids to have minds that are open to growth, change, and action is vital to the future of our planet and humankind. On her Instagram, Jayme creates content to equip individuals with tools for using inclusive language in ways that support the LGBTQ+ community. When time permits, Jayme can be found sipping coffee on the porch, baking in the kitchen, or hiking in the woods. @jaymesherrod
