About

Hi! Welcome to Boardable 615!

For as long as I can remember, my life has revolved around food.

Whether it was family dinners growing up, celebrating the Lord’s Supper as a preacher’s kid, date nights with my husband, or feeding my three precocious children, the gift of food is my comfort and my refuge.

In fact, it’s through food that I feel closest to the things that are important to me: faith, family, and my friends.

It’s why when I design a Boardable, I feel at home — and in some way connected to each of you. I feel called to share in your joy during life’s celebrations, but also to bring you comfort during life’s chaos through the healing powers of food and artful arrangement.

Some people preach from a pulpit. I like to think maybe I preach through parmesan and pepperoni.

It’s table fellowship that breaks down barriers and binds us together. Breaking bread, or sharing cheese and crackers, signifies that ALL are welcome to the table. Just please pass me the blueberry cheddar — it’s the shiznit!

I’m a Tennessee native who has spent 18 years in the food service industry, helping others start businesses in various food niches including gastro pubs, bars, breweries, and bakery services. I’ve also spent time in the business sector, looking for my place in it all.

A few things were clear: I like food. I like people. And I really like it when people enjoy eating food I create. And here we are at Boardable 615. Growing and learning together.

First of all, I’m a wife and a mom of three, and if June, Ryan, or Luke need me, that’s where I’ll be. The kids love that they get access to weekly leftovers; I’m thrilled they get to see their mother be her own boss.

Second of all, I love hearing your stories! I do my best work when YOU are excited about MY product. These food boards are not only designed to satisfy cravings or serve as a snack, but to inspire you on life’s journey — made better by unique flavors and beauty.

But now that I’m a full-fledged bosswoman, don’t be fooled: I’m still a real person, dropping F-bombs and telling dirty jokes. I’m the Elizabeth I’ve always been, but now I use my gifts professionally to bring people joy, comfort, and love through food.

Let me know how I can serve you.
