Before all that, she was a public defender in Texas and a law student at the University of Mississippi School of Law.
Bailey enjoys hanging out with her husband, daughter, and menagerie of pets at her home in North Carolina. She has many hobbies but isn’t particularly good at any of them because she can’t seem to pick one. Her favorite activities are meeting new people and learning new things.
