My name is James Akins, and this is the beginning of my 20th year at Davis Drive Middle School. I am a graduate of NC State University (GO PACK!), with a degree in middle school math & science education, as well as a National Board Certification.

Being part of a military family, we moved quite often. I've had the opportunity to live in many cool places, like Japan & Hawaii, and while we never stayed in one place too long, I consider myself from Swansboro, NC. When I wasn't in school, I was probably either at the beach or playing soccer. Eventually I made my way from Swansboro to Raleigh, and have remained in the area since.

I now enjoy spending time with my wife & 4 children, & being outdoors as much as possible. My passion is backpacking, & I love to hike in the NC Mountains every chance I get. I am also passionate about volunteering within my church and community, and am involved in several of it's missions & ministries.
