When Savannah’s two boys started kindergarten in west Texas, that passion was ignited! Savannah wanted her children and their friends to have the same fresh from scratch meals that would be served out of her home kitchen. Rather than complain, she decided to become part of the solution and began her career as a Child Nutrition Specialist for Ector County ISD.
Savannah brings over 8 years of management experience with her and received her Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration with accounting and finance being her main areas of concentration from Cornell University in 2019.
