:: In Loving Memory :: Heather lost her battle with cancer in September 2025. She was a big part of the Nashville Moms team, and had been with the site since its launch in 2014. In 2022, she took on an even bigger role by becoming a content creator on the executive team. She loved being involved with the site, and was an important part of everything we do at Nashville Moms. She was a joy, a wonderful person, and a great mother. She will be deeply missed, and leaves a big hole on our Nashville team. ___________________________________________________________ I’m a proud single mom to two amazing daughters—Madison, who’s starting her next chapter at Baylor, and Ellie, who keeps life fun and full of energy. I work as a Senior Manager of Renewals for a software company based out of Austin. Murfreesboro is home, and I love the balance of suburban life with quick access to Nashville. Faith is a big part of my story, and I stay active at LifePoint Church, Riverdale campus. I’m also a lifelong Blue Raider, always cheering for my alma mater MTSU. The last couple of years have shaped me in big ways—I’m a cancer fighter and hopeful soon survivor, learning daily to celebrate life, find strength in faith, and appreciate the little moments with my family. If it’s fall, you’ll probably find me decked out in two-tone blue, cheering on my beloved Titans. Football is my happy place, though I love all sports. And when it’s time to slow down, you’ll catch me curled up with Gilmore Girls—because yes, I’ve watched it more times than I can count, and it’s officially a lifestyle at this point!
