CONNECT WITH ME
How I got to Memphis…
Born and bred in Memphis, TN, my journey took a brief detour to Knoxville for college. However, the pull of home brought me back, especially with the support of the Choose901 alumni network throughout my academic years.
Growing up, I was surrounded by the arts, thanks to my performer mom, igniting a passion for creativity and storytelling. After freelancing in graphic design during college, I returned to Memphis to contribute to the city that shaped me, leading significant social media campaigns to promote this great city.
Why I Choose901
Choose901 isn't just a campaign for me; it's a testament to the unmatched community and energy of Memphis.
This city is unique, from its rich cultural fabric to its warm, inviting community. After experiencing life elsewhere, the decision to return and invest here was undeniable.
Memphis is home, and through my work, I aim to ensure it feels like home for others as well.

Outside of work, I'm all about embracing the local scene. Whether it's going for a run along the Mississippi or grabbing a slice at Memphis Pizza Cafe, staying active and indulging in what the city has to offer is my way of life.
I’m a self-proclaimed meme master and a Beyoncé-loving Gen-Z with a penchant for discovering the city's hidden gems. You might catch me at local art exhibits or exploring new community events, always ready to capture the next inspiring moment for our next big story.
