WHAT IS SOMETHING MOST PEOPLE DON’T KNOW ABOUT YOU?
I have two titanium rods keeping my spine straight because of a spinal fusion I had done in eighth grade. I grew up with scoliosis and the wonderful doctors at Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital took care of me. It was definitely scary to have that kind of surgery so young. You can barely see my scar, but other than that most people have no idea.
A QUOTE YOU LIVE BY:
Proverbs 3:5-6. “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight.” My relationship with Jesus will always be the most important thing to me. At the end of the day, I know that no matter how much I want to be in control or know what’s ahead, only He knows. It’s brought me unexplainable peace and joy in the most chaotic seasons and it’s amazing to see how strong I’ve become through it all.
WHAT IS YOUR DEFINITION OF BEAUTY?
I believe true beauty is all about who someone is and not about their outward appearance. How would you describe their heart? Are their intentions pure and honest? A beautiful person has a soul that cares deeply for serving others and spreads love and kindness to their neighbors. I work in a very public industry where thousands of people see me live on air each day. I didn’t get into TV for that. I got into it to have the ability to make a difference in my community and to give a voice to those who need to be heard. I have been blessed with a platform that allows me to do that, and I hope to always continue to share stories that create change in the city I’m proud to call my hometown.
