Dunbar to Doctors

Introducing Dr. Lucas & Dr. Parham! Tammira and Shaneka are Baltimore City natives who met freshman year at Paul Laurence Dunbar Community High School where they quickly became best friends. They graduated from Dunbar High School together and now 14 years later they have graduated with their Doctorate degrees together. Despite all of the challenges and barriers that they have faced, they both had the determination and perseverance to pursue their goals. Tammira received her Doctorate degree in Business and Shaneka received her Doctorate in Psychology. In addition to their academic accomplishments, they are also super moms to their children and devoted wives to their husbands. They are also members of the elite Divine Nine. Tammira is a member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Inc. and Shaneka is a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Inc.. They are very proud of where they have come from and thought what better location for their Doctoral graduation photo shoot then at the school where their journey as friends began. They both have incredible stories to tell and they are wonderful examples for all our African-American inner city youth… anything is possible if you put your mind to it!  Congratulations Dr. Lucas & Dr. Parham!!
