MEET YOUR NEIGHBORS
Meet Anna Poland (Beaver), her almost 7-months-old son Robert, and her two dogs, Harley and Ivy! They live on Dogwood Circle in the home Anna’s parents bought in 2005. Her parents moved overseas and rented out their house when she was a sophomore in college, but she moved back into their house 6 years ago to help maintain the property after many years of renters. She was an elementary school teacher in Dekalb County for 9 years before transitioning into a remote position after Robert was born. Anna loves her neighbors and the close community that is Norcross! She’s thankful for its great history and the stories her more “mature” neighbors share about growing up here.
