Outside of Work

When Chelle isn’t working, she enjoys cooking and baking (ask about her C&FD famous cookies), reading, and traveling (Thailand is next on her bucket list!). Her ideal day involves a long stroll down every aisle of Publix, a seasonal latte, and spending time with her husband, and two children- Miles and Caroline.
