 Bryson is dedicated to giving back and has launched the Be The Good Neighbor Program to help others in his community by providing food and other support to organizations that help people.  Bryson belief of being ‘blessed to be a blessing is a motto that resonates through everything they do at their office.   

 When he’s not at the office, you’ll find him traveling the country with his family, raising in front of a BBQ grill, supporting his fraternity or cheering for his favorite team, the TN Titans

Jen has worked with Bryson for five years and considers herself to be the Head Cheerleader and Pom-pom Shaker extraordinaire.  Her background in marketing and sales combined with her passion for giving back aligns perfectly with the mission of The Bryson McCarley Foundation.

When she’s not at work, you’ll find her waiting in line to pick up her daughter from various sports or riding a bleacher cheering her on.  Jen is an avid traveler (ask her how many languages she speaks) and reader and is passionate about helping people in our community.  Jen also heads up our Be the Good Neighbor Program and is passionate to making our community a better place!
