🎓 Kaycee & Kamryn’s Journey: From Charlotte to Duke & UNC
As seniors at West Charlotte High School, Kaycee and Kamryn Hailey were known as “the twins”—but their postsecondary journeys were uniquely their own. With personalized support and strategic planning from Dr. Martin, both students gained the tools, confidence, and resources to pursue their dreams on separate paths.
Dr. Martin:
Coached both students on scholarship essays and interview preparation
Helped arrange campus visits to their top-choice universities
Aligned passion-driven extracurriculars and mentoring roles that elevated their confidence
With over $1 million in scholarships between them, Kaycee and Kamryn earned admission to Duke University and UNC Chapel Hill—becoming academic rivals, but lifelong cheerleaders for each other.
Their story is a powerful reminder that with guidance, encouragement, and a clear plan, anything is possible.

“Martin—that’s what we call her—is the GOAT. I had a million questions, but she never turned me away. Before my interview, she said, ‘Kam, you’ve been preparing for this since freshman year. You’re ready. I carried that confidence with me to college.”
