Full name: Robbie Deneice Hudson-Scott.
I live in: Hughes Springs.
Family: Siheem Scott, husband, and O’Zarion Hudson, son.
Pets: Two Betas-Blood, a red beta, and Crip, a blue beta.
Occupation: Teacher at Head Start.
One of the best things about my job is: Hearing my children in my class say, “I love you Ms. Robbie.”
My ideal vacation is: Going to Jamaica.
My hero is: My grandmother, Daisy Mae Johnson, because she was a loving person and she never met a stranger.  She taught me how to become the person that I am today and not to worry what others thought or said about you.

My favorite healthy snack is: Grapes.
A cause I most believe in is: Sickle cell anemia charities.
If I could change one thing about East Texas, it would be: Racism. Yes, it still exists.
The person who has influenced my life most is: My mother, Thelma J. Hudson, because she has always put me and my sister, Sherl, first and she made sure she worked hard to give us everything we wanted and needed. She didn’t attend college but she made sure we went to college and she taught us how to be the best mothers to our children.
The scariest thing that ever happened to me was: When I drove on a one-way street in Dallas.
If I had to do it all over again, I’d: Finish my bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice many years ago.
The most exciting or dangerous thing I’ve ever done was: I gave birth to my son naturally.

I would have liked to participate in the historical event of: President Obama’s first inauguration.
Two words that describe me are: Beautiful and blessed.
Included on my bucket list are: Go to Jamaica, have another child with my husband, and live to see O’Zarion become a professional young man.
