Meet the Chamber Team
The Farragut West Knox Chamber is powered by a dedicated team of four professionals who keep the Chamber running smoothly and its many programs and events thriving. Each team member brings a unique area of focus—whether it’s communications, operations, member relations, or event coordination—but we all share a commitment to supporting our members and building a connected, thriving business community.
Whether you’re calling with a quick question, attending a ribbon cutting, or looking to grow your involvement, you’ll find a friendly face (or voice!) ready to help however we can. We love what we do—and we’re proud to do it for you.
