An Atlanta native, Mandy moved to Nashville in 1999, where she handled tour press for superstar Amy Grant and facilitated the debut album campaign for Gold-selling boy band Plus One. She went on to serve as a label publicist for both Pamplin Records (Natalie Grant, Katy Hudson—now Katy Perry), and Essential Records (Third Day, Jars of Clay), before launching Savvy Media Solutions in 2004. Savvy Media became the go-to firm for both established and emerging artists, as Mandy created numerous innovative promotional campaigns for recognizable artists and brands including David Crowder Band, newsboys, Matthew West and “Passion.” In 2015, Mandy decided to take a break from publicity to stay home full-time with her children. She currently resides in Franklin, TN, with her daughter Savannah (9), son Davis (6), and husband Anyan. In her free time, Mandy enjoys singing, thrifting and making people feel loved.
