Briefly tell us your life story.

I finished graduate school at the University of Mississippi in 2017 with a Master of Business Administration degree and quickly made the move to Nashville to begin my career in the insurance field. I spent the previous three years with an insurance technology startup there, before moving back home to MS to begin work at MWG. I was lucky enough to get engaged this past Thanksgiving and am looking forward to getting married in January. My fiancé and I have two corgis that are, at least in my opinion, the funniest/best dogs ever and make every day better than the last. We are excited to start the next chapter of our lives in Jackson and I am looking forward to MWG being part of it!

Briefly tell us your life story.

I was born in Jackson, MS and raised in Clinton. I grew up playing recreational and club soccer which was my greatest love back then and I’ll always miss those days! After graduating high school, I attended community college on and off for a few years attempting to figure out what my major should be, all the while working at a bookstore. The community college I was attending brought their Interior Design program over from their main campus and I knew I had to pursue it. I ended up completing the two-year Interior Design program with plans to transfer to Southern Miss to work toward a bachelor’s degree. After the company I completed my interior design internship with offered me a full-time position, I decided against attending the USM. I learned a lot working in the industry and still have a passion for design but I’ve learned over the years that I am not meant to make a career out of it – it’s more joyful to me as a hobby! I’m so happy that my path led me to be a part of Morgan White Group and I can’t wait to see what’s in store for me here. I will work hard to be a valuable member of the Broker Services team!

What is your favorite book(s)?

A Gentleman in Moscow by Amor Towles is the latest book I’ve read and it’s a really great one.

What are your hobbies or interests?

I love spending time with my family & friends. I’m always finding inspiration and coming up with ideas for my dream home that I hope to renovate or build one day. Movies and music are two passions of mine, which I get from my dad. I love Halloween, Thanksgiving & Christmas! The last 3 months of the year are my favorites and I love going all out with decorations for those holidays, which I get from my mom!

What are you most proud of?

My family!

What is your favorite quote?

It is from one of my favorite movies, The Wizard of Oz, 1939, “There’s no place like home.”
Even though I love to go new places and see new things, home is where the heart is!
