What do you get when an Aussie marries a Southern Belle? Little Chickas... Jenny, a UGA grad, met Chicka at Stanford University in 2000, and after marrying in Kennesaw, they moved to Sydney, where Jenny completed her Master's degree in Education. Missing their Waffle House, sweet tea, and wanting their daughters to wear UGA colors, they moved home and have spent the past 16 years in Cherokee County. In May 2023, Chicka left a career in corporate HR to begin this hyper-local adventure with Jenny. 

We love our home turf and are honored to partner with best-in-class people and businesses to showcase Canton to the world. As all our readers know, Canton is full of popular eateries, ongoing growth, outdoor sports, and adventure. We spend our time as a family enjoying all the experiences. We love our Church, connecting with friends, learning local history, and promoting local for everyone to enjoy. We can't wait to see what this publication looks like 12 months from now and look forward to your partnership.
