The son of Craig Dawkins, MD and the Honorable Deborah Dawkins, I grew up on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, having spent 30 years of my life as a resident of West Harrison County. I first attended Harrison County public schools, while playing sports with the Pass Christian recreational league, then graduating from St. Stanislaus. I received a scholarship from the Catholic University of America in 2001, which brought me to Washington, DC. While attending school there, I received an opportunity from former US Representative Ronnie Shows to be employed as an intern on Capitol Hill. With my Bachelor of Arts from CUA earned in 2005, I returned home a week before Hurricane Katrina.
