What is your vision for Knoxville 10 years from now?
I dream of a community that will grow together, work together for solutions, create more jobs that allow families to thrive, and more of our community achieving homeownership to create generational wealth. I pray everyday that more and more people become involved and help to build a stronger, safer, and more robust community.
What is Knoxville's Best Kept Secret?
Our community is passionate about loving each other. Even at times when we don't agree, we still seem to find common ground to support causes for the greater good.
What would you do to strengthen Knoxville?
I will lend my voice to be a solution, and share my passion to ignite and inspire those around me to achieve more - personally, spiritually, and communally.
What is your favorite Knoxville memory?
Easy - October 15, 2022... Neyland Stadium,... UT 52 - Bama 49, singing Dixieland Delight.
What is your favorite book or what book is currently on your nightstand?
The Bible
What is the best advice you have received from a mentor, and who was that mentor?
Jim Kite - Get in a room or to a table with people who have succeeded, and then be quiet and listen!
What advice would you give to your 16 year old self?
Live your life, don't take everything so personally. You can not worry about the judgment of others - you are not living for them and you don't owe them any explanations.
