Areas of Expertise:  I have worked in the Insurance Industry since 2006.  Before I began my career in Insurance, I worked at Dyersburg Regional Medical Center (DRMC), first as an ER Registration Clerk, then as a Financial Counselor for the Business Office, and then worked as Manager of a Physician's office contracted with DRMC.  I am currently Agency Manager at Union City Insurance Partners, LLC., and am licensed to sell insurance in each of the following categories: Life Insurance, Health Insurance, Property and Casualty Insurance and am certified in Long-Term Care.  I feel like getting to learn every aspect of the business really allowed me to value the importance of taking care of my customers and making their best interest my priority.

 

Other Interests: I enjoy spending time with my husband Shane and our three children: Cole, Grant, and Lynlee who are 14, 10, and 7 and keep us more than busy.  I am also very involved in with my Church Family where I serve as an Elementary Bible School Teacher and enjoy singing.  If time ever permits, I love to work outside and garden any chance I get.

 

Why did you join the Chamber?  After moving from Union City to Dyersburg at a very young age, I have enjoyed coming back to Union City as an adult in the workforce.  Years ago my mother, Sonya Burks, started her Banking Career at Old and Third Bank, and my father, Randy Hepler, was President and CEO of OSA Crop Marketing.  I have truly been welcomed by the people in this town who have known my family and watched me grow up over the years, and I am proud to be back in Union City and involved in the community.

 

 

 

What is the Chamber's role in the business community? It has been my experience since joining Union City Insurance Partners, LLC., that the Chamber has truly helped our Agency and team members to grow by providing a forum for "networking" and introducing us to new opportunities. 

Areas of Expertise: In the funeral industry we are expected to do an array of jobs. I specialize in the preparations of family's loved ones, which includes, the embalming process, dressing and casketing, and
cosmetic work. I also meet with families during the arrangement process, help conduct their ceremonies, and I'm also here to help counsel them through their tough times of need.

Other Interests: love spending time with my wife Ashley and my one year old daughter Ryleigh. I enjoy anything outdoors; golf, fishing, hunting, and working in the yard to name a few. I also strive and have a passion to be involved in our community and very much enjoy attending worship services at the First United Methodist Church of Union City.

Why did you join the Chamber? We saw that being a part of the local chamber would be a great asset and resource for us to serve the families of this area. We also believe that being a part of the Chamber is another way we can contribute to our community.

Why do you serve as an Ambassador? When my family and I first moved to obion county, I set out to become involved and offer my time and contribution to the people and small businesses in the area.

What is the Chamber's role in the business community? I have found that our local chamber offers a multitude of opportunities and resources to make each business in the area the best they can be. The chamber offers very informative sessions about various businesses and expertise in our area. They also create a great networking opportunity for everyone to be a part of. I have always believed that competition is a great thing and if we all work together and share ideas with each other we can offer the best services and products our great community deserves.
