About Me

My name is Erykah Gray, though many recognize me as Miss Gray. Hailing from the town of Centreville in Southern Mississippi, I hold a Bachelor’s degree in English from The University of Southern Mississippi in Hattiesburg and a Master of Arts in Literature from Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia. Currently, I am a doctoral student at the University of Louisiana at Monroe.

I firmly believe learning is a lifelong journey—and I am driven to excel on that path. Teaching is not my profession; but it’s a part of my identity. I am passionate about speaking, writing, and empowering others to discover their voices. Each day in my classroom, I am committed to nurturing my students into confident, inspired thinkers ready to conquer the world, and here I inspire to do the same.
