Where are you from: I grew up in a tiny town called Bethel about 45 minutes outside of Cincinnati, Ohio. I think we have 3 street lights and the fanciest restaurant is a Frisch’s Big Boy. If you don’t know what that is just remember the scene in Austin Powers when Dr. Evil escapes in the spaceship shaped like a boy holding a burger. That’s Big Boy.
Any Nicknames: Stone Cold Kron, M&M
Why’d you move to Nashville: I grew up riding horses, so I came down here every summer to show for about 7 years. When it came time to apply to colleges I was already in love with Nashville and Belmont ended up being the perfect fit.
Where are you go to spots in Nashville:
Breakfast: Star Bagel
Lunch: Cafe Roze

What is your background in Fashion: After college I spent a month in New York City working for Sam Edelman. I had the opportunity to work in public relations, marketing and wholesale while I was there. When I came back to Nashville I began working as an assistant for a start-up boutique called Milou Palm Beach based out of Palm Beach, FL. And now of course I’m at ELT :)
