Mayberry's five years of legal experience include intern positions at the Tennessee State Attorney General's Office; the Davidson County (TN) District Attorney's Office; Daniel, Harvill, Batson & Nolan in Clarksville, TN; and Waring Cox in Memphis, TN. Mayberry holds a bachelor's degree from the University of Tennessee, a Juris Doctor from Vanderbilt University and a Master of Laws in Taxation from the University of Florida.

“CCA values its relationships with the public sector,” said Ken Bouldin, CCA Chief Development Officer. “The expansion of our business development team enhances CCA's service to each of our customers, and Lucibeth brings valuable expertise to our business development efforts. We are pleased to welcome her as the newest member of our organization.”

CCA is the nation's largest owner and operator of privatized correctional and detention facilities and one of the largest prison operators in the United States, behind only the federal government and four states. CCA currently operates 59 facilities, including 38 company-owned facilities, with a total design capacity of approximately 60,000 beds in 20 states and the District of Columbia.
