Official Bio:

Raised as an Air Force brat, I was not from anywhere. Nov. 2006 in the early hours of dawn, the morning dew was thick, the temperature was cool, horses were galloping in the pastures, the morning was perfect.  We were driving on US 301 where horse farms and Oak Trees lined the road, somewhere between Citra and Anthony. My first visit to Ocala and that was it, I had found my home. Now I can finally say.. “I’m from Ocala”

Married to my perfect for me person Matt Cornelison since 1991, we have three wonderful sons, that brought us three amazing daughters-in-law’s that have given us 6 ‘n counting grandchildren.

We also have a small petting farm “Finally Home Farm” that we have many rescued fur/feather babies… dogs, cat, chickens, goats, and horses.  

I am proud to say I have been a part of the CEP since 2012. I started as partner, became an Ambassador, Ambassador Co-chair,  Director of Partner Relations, graduate of LOM class XXVIII, LOM Regent and now Director of Ocala Downtown Market.

Prior to the CEP my background includes being a Territory Manager for Nabisco, Owner of B.E.S.Trucking and a Licensed Insurance Agent.
