Experience
Founder
Mar 2021 — Present · Knoxville, TN, US
As an entrepreneur focused on sustainability, I founded the region\'s first refill store to address the problem of single-use plastic pollution in my region. Guiding a team of 5 employees, I provide hands-on leadership, mentorship, and training across projects. My oversight of day-to-day operations led to a local customer base exceeding and an impressive 180% average revenue growth year over year. With a knack for compelling storytelling and sustained press relationships, I\'ve secured 18 features across television, print, digital, and podcast media in just 2 years. KnoxFill has been featured on WBIR, WATE, Teknovation.biz, Toasted Earth Podcast, Hellbender Press, Shopper News, Knoxville News Sentinel, Knoxville Voyager, Help You Dwell, and Furman University News, among others.
