ABOUT
rooted in relationships
I was born and raised in Dalton, GA, and graduated from the University of Georgia. I completed my dietetic internship at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, beginning my journey in health, wellness, and program development. My career started with the Nashville Fire Department and continued in Chattanooga. I am most proud of my time with YMCA Chattanooga as a founding member of MobileFit, a program that has served over 4 million healthy meals through after-school and summer feeding to the youth of Chattanooga.
I have worked as a clinical dietitian, including at Erlanger Neurology ALS Clinic, and managed a corporate wellness program for Hamilton Health Care System. I am a mother to four children, wife to my high school sweetheart, and passionate about knowing others well. I see nutrition as a means to build relationships and connect with others. It is a privilege to work alongside individuals on their journey to health and well-being.
