My Story:

Nikkia Pannell joins Beacon Academy as a paraprofessional. As a lady with many talents, she has been blessed to serve in several professional capacities since graduating from Rustburg High School in 2015. From cosmetology to sales, she takes everything she does seriously. Recently, she has found that her greatest and most rewarding passion is being a light to children. In her free time, she loves to travel, take long walks on the trails in Lynchburg, tend to her garden, and sing. She is a worship leader and performs in a local R&B band. Ms. Pannell has never met a stranger, so be sure to pop in and say "Hi" whenever you get a chance!
