Cathy grew up in Louisville, Kentucky loving sports, fast horses and good bourbon. She is passionate about the Hospitality Industry and this stems from growing up in the business at my dad’s office as GM of Louisville Gardens.
After graduating from Catholic grade and High School, she attended Western Kentucky University. Cathy majored in Institutional Administration (Hospitality Studies). After college she entered the workforce in management for The Hyatt Regency Hotel. Continuing to pursue her passion in hospitality, she joined Chi-Chi’s, The Olive Garden and Cracker Barrel Old Country Store.
Cathy joined The Heritage group in 2004 with 5 McAlister’s Deli locations, which grew to 12. She started as the training manager, GM and quickly grew into the Area Manager role. She loves that we’re “home grown” in that many of their managers started at a young age and they’ve been able to help them find their potential and voice to move into management. She is very proud to be a part of helping with development in leadership, and communication skills in a fast-paced environment.
She looks forward to continuing these values with the Southern Rock family since joining them in January 2023.
She is married to a Navy Veteran husband Don, for the last 32 years spending their free time seeking adventures.
