Sonya Curry Net Worth $16 million
Sonya was educated at Radford High School, where she played both volleyball and basketball, being very successful in both sports in helping the teams win state championships. After matriculating, she attended Virginia Tech, continuing to play volleyball there. She led the Virginia Tech Hokies to 69 wins in four years, becoming a three-letter winner and reaching the sixth most aces in Virginia Tech history at 57, and being named to the All-Metro team. She graduated with a degree majoring in elementary education, with a minor in family studies.
After her studies, Curry would then focus on her work as a school administrator which would increase her net worth significantly. She opened the doors of the Christian Montessori School-Lake Norman in 1995, which focuses on the spiritual and academic development of those under their education system. It wasn’t until nearly a decade later, that the school became one of the few Christian Montessori Schools in the south-eastern United States.
The school is a Full School Member of the American Montessori Society supported by the North Carolina Department of Non-Public Intrusion. The school is open to children of various backgrounds. As she continued her work there, her net worth has increased even further.
For her personal life, it is known that Sonya married retired professional basketball player Dell Curry in 1988, having first met while in college. They have three children, two of whom have become basketball players in the NBA, Seth Curry and Stephen Curry, who was awarded by the NBA as their 2015 MVP; she can be seen in her sons’ games cheering them on. They also have a daughter who played volleyball for Elon University. She’s also attracted attention from social media thanks to her dancing, supposedly some negative attention due to how she was said to be dancing with another guy; the issues were later put to rest by the family, saying that the guy was a friend of Stephen Curry. She’s very active on social media too, having over 162,000 followers on Instagram; she updates her page regularly. Sonya also does charity work
