MELANIE, CPO

Melanie has been with Spring Hill Eyecare since January 2008. Melanie started as an optometric assistant and is now our office manager. She is the machine that keeps the whole business going.

Married to an Alabama fan (Dale, who preaches for the Spring Meadows Church of Christ), she is an Auburn Tiger. They have two grown sons. Melanie enjoys spending time with family, entertaining, watching football, reading, relaxing on the porch swing, seeing our 50 states (having visited 34 as a family already), summertime, collecting Santas and is determined to develop a green thumb while living in Spring Hill.
