Charlotte is currently in the 8th grade living in Texas and has attended 6 schools. She has attended schools on base in England, and Germany. Charlotte was born in Texas, moved to Germany, then Ohio, then England, and now Texas. Moving has always been a challenge for Charlotte, especially moving back to the US, but hanging out with other military children had made her adjustment a bit easier. Charlotte enjoys playing volleyball in her free time and hanging out with friends.
