ATLANTA – A first-time lottery player is a new millionaire. Shaadi Edwards, 27, won $1 million by matching the first five winning numbers in Wednesday’s Powerball drawing.

Edwards realized she won after seeing the draw results on Twitter.

“It felt surreal,” she said.

A resident of Atlanta, Edwards hopes to purchase a home, pay off her grandparents’ house, and do advocacy work.

Congrats to Shaadi Edwards of Atlanta, who won a $1M #Powerball prize. Shaadi is 1 of 2 @GeorgiaLottery players to win $1M last night.
