About Me…

I currently live in the heart of Nashville with my husband Jacob, our two dogs, Butter and Stan, and our horse Loretta Lynn. I am originally from Decatur, IL, but I packed myself up and moved to Franklin, TN in 2020 and absolutely fell in love with the entire Nashville area. The food scene is amazing, there are so many fun things to do, and of course the music is great. It’s a very inspiring place to live because people are active and pursuing their dreams.

In my free time I love a good ride on my horse, trying out a new restaurant with my husband, going home to visit my family in Illinois, whipping up a new recipe, hiking, kayaking, or gardening. The good ol’ outdoors is where it’s really at for me. Always has been!

I get to work full-time for Caroline Bryan as the manager for Brett’s Barn and Best Bad Influence (Caroline’s apparel line) - she is the COOLEST! And I also work part-time for The Brett Boyer Foundation, founded by Ellen Boyer, who is also the best! If you are looking for a great foundation to support, I can assure you, The Brett Boyer Foundation is the one. I am so grateful to work for these incredible women. Our team is small, so we are all like family, which is such a gift.

My husband, Jake, is the lead guitar player and band manager for Riley Green. I enjoy catching a show on the road from time to time. I will definitely make sure to share bits and pieces about being married to a touring musician on here. :) Jake is also a songwriter and producer for some great young artists, so I will definitely share about them as well so that you can follow along their journey.

Trust me, I know that life is busy and most of us don’t have time to read a long blog. So, I promise to keep it pretty short and sweet around here. I love sharing recommendations for the Nashville area and keeping things real and relatable, so that is what I plan to do!
