I'm River Rat's Marketing Director! That means if it has our logo on it, I’ve had my hands on it.

The natural world is a source of life for me, so I built a career around connecting others with that experience. It's happened so authentically; it often feels like it built itself.

Just before graduating from UTK with a Marketing Analytics degree, the Smoky Mountain outdoor recreation industry caught my attention. I started as the Marketing Manager for Foxfire Mountain Adventure Park and their cidery, Wyile Cider. Then fate did its thing in 2018 and I became a River Rat.

I’m grateful to work alongside beautiful people that pursue excellence in all they do. I can only finesse in my position because of their fantastic work. This place is truly unique. I’m proud to be a River Rat.
