It may be nicknamed “Music City,” but Nashville is so much more than just country music. It’s a city of culture and history, haute cuisine, pro sports, outstanding academics, natural beauty and pure Southern charm. In Nashville, the past and the future peacefully coexist to create a destination that appeals to the interests of every visitor. The city is a center for the music, healthcare, publishing, banking and transportation industries, and is home to a large number of colleges and universities. It is also my hometown, born and raised in Nashville, I have seen a small city grow up to be a city full of positive growth, great entertainment and hospitality.
