After high school, she attended the University of Michigan and received her Bachelors of Arts in Education.

Once back in Michigan, she began teaching at Ecorse Public Schools from which she retired. Cheryl served her community as a member of Zeta Nu Zeta Chapter, Inkster, Michigan. She took pride representing the "Finer Womanhood." It is also important to note, Cheryl was a two-time Breast Cancer survivor. She fought a good fight and beat Breast Cancer twice with the help of the Lord. Cheryl had a passion for sports cars and designer bags. Her favorite car was the Corvette, in which she was determined to get another one some day, regardless of what anyone said. She loved to grace her closet with the most recent Coach or Dooney & Bourke bag. It's safe to say tat Cheryl loved to shop and also eat good. She marched to the beat of her own drum.
