Thank you for visiting

Latatious Morris was born and raised in Pensacola, Florida, famously known as the home of the Blue Angels. After graduating high school, she followed her dream of living in New York City, where she spent nearly 12 years building her life and career. A spontaneous visit with friends brought her to North Carolina in 2010, and within a month, she made Raleigh her new home, beginning her journey in the behavioral health field.

Latatious moved to Knightdale in 2014 and quickly fell in love with the town’s charm, especially in the fall. She immersed herself in the community, eager to learn and connect with her neighbors. What she found was a place that reminded her of home, full of warmth, possibility, and belonging. It didn’t take long for Knightdale to become more than just a place to live; it became her true home.

Her desire to give back began with service on the Churchill HOA Board and its landscape and social committees. After more than three years in that role, she sought to contribute on a broader scale, joining the Land Use Review Board (LURB) in 2018. There, she served as both a quasi-judicial member and later as LURB Chair, helping shape responsible growth in Knightdale. In 2021, she was appointed to the Knightdale Town Council, where she proudly continues to serve.

Latatious brings over a decade of professional experience in project coordination, property management, and administrative leadership, having worked with companies both locally and nationally. In both her professional and public service roles, she is known for her attention to detail, collaborative leadership, and commitment to accessible and equitable solutions for all.

A proud graduate of East Carolina University (Magna Cum Laude) with a degree in Communications, Latatious is currently pursuing her Master of Public & Nonprofit Administration at Metro State University. She is most passionate about Housing Affordability, Youth Leadership Engagement, Economic Growth and Development, Community Togetherness, and Accessibility for All Abilities. Her vision includes more sidewalks, bike lanes, walkable spaces, and fully connected greenways in Knightdale, along with consistent, reliable public transportation.

In 2023, Latatious founded the East Wake Local Government Association to strengthen collaboration between eastern Wake municipalities, including Rolesville, Zebulon, and Wendell. The group meets quarterly to share issues, goals, achievements, and solutions, offering each other support, encouragement, and a platform for partnership across town councils and senior staff.

Outside of her work, Latatious actively supports organizations such as the American Heart Association, Relay for Life, and the St. Baldrick’s Foundation, where she shaved her head in 2019 to raise funds for childhood cancer research. She’s happiest when reading on the beach, spending time with friends and family, or visiting her favorite local spots: the Veterans Memorial at Knightdale Station Park and the Knightdale Environmental Park.

Latatious is running for re-election because she believes in a thriving, inclusive, and connected Knightdale, and she’s committed to building a future where everyone feels at home.
