Edwards

Events and Development Manager

Possessing a BSW and a MAMFT (with a specialization in children and adolescents), Holly is passionate about all students having access to mental health services. She was a therapist in Metro Nashville Schools for five years before transitioning into development roles for nonprofits in Nashville and New York City. She has extensive experience in events, communications, volunteer management and donor relations. 

As a former proofreader, she tries hard not to annoy her colleagues with her zeal for spotting mistakes. Holly loves SEC sports, traveling, reading, live music, theatre and tap dancing. She also longs to have a basset hound named “Pearl.”

STARS is deeply committed to creating a culture and work space that centers on the power of relationships, that values diversity of perspective and experience, and that honors the dignity, worth, and contributions of all.
