Biography

When Kendra was 3, her father, Rev. Rupert Rolle, decided to move the family to Brunswick from Bimini, a tiny island in the Bahamas. The late Rev. E. C. Tillman, a well-known pastor and civic leader, motivated her father's decision to move to Brunswick. Growing up with parents from the Bahamas, she recognized early on the importance of understanding and serving the community around her. As a child, she was always taught to respect other people, regardless of their race or station in life. Her mother and father constantly reminded her and her siblings of the importance of treating other people with dignity, honor, and respect.

As someone raised in Brunswick, Kendra is a proud product of the Glynn County School System. After completing high school, she attended The College of Coastal Georgia and later transferred to Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College in Tifton, Georgia. She then spent five years as a flight attendant, learning the importance of interpersonal communication. In 2010, Kendra returned back home to Brunswick. 

After relocating back to Brunswick, Kendra saw a need to give back to her community. Since her return over ten years ago, she has had her hand on the pulse of the city. She is currently the Family Advocate at Coastal Georgia Area Community Action Authority. She formerly served as a Parent and Family Involvement Coordinator in the Glynn County Public Schools. 

Kendra is a bridge-builder who has the ability to appeal to constituents across social and economic lines.

Kendra lives in the City of Brunswick's Northward with her son. Kendra's hobbies include spending time with family and friends, community service, and attending sporting events. Kendra looks forward to serving her community in a new role as Northward City Commissioner.
