Hello, my name is Venisha Murphy I was born and raised in New York City.  As a sophomore in college I had the opportunity to work for the city comptroller’s office directly across from the World Trade Center with a view of the Brooklyn Bridge. I have so many fond memories of NYC, it will always be a part of me.

Today, I am married with four children and currently teach 6th grade science at Carnage Middle School.
In 1995 I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Biological Science from the SUNY College at Old Westbury.  After graduating I decided to visit my mother in Pinehurst, NC. While in NC I met my husband Dion Murphy who was a sergeant stationed at Fort Bragg.   In 2001 I entered the lateral entry program at Fayetteville State University completing my required education courses while teaching.  Three years later in the spring of 2004 I completed my course requirements and passed my Praxis receiving my certification in grades 6-9 middle school science. I joined the Carnage family in 2007 and received my AIG certification from East Carolina University in 2009.
