You can say that flowers found Christy. And, not other way around. After a successful career utilizing her degree from University of Georgia’s prestigious Grady School, the family flower shop came to her serendipitously.

Believing good fun, strong women, genuine kindness, tight friendships and tough families are what make the world go around, she's original, loyal, tenacious and quiet at times.
