        It is my pleasure to serve our clients as if they were members of my own family.

        I have been fortunate enough to serve families and attend to their needs over the last four decades. I am a founding member of Stamper, Zion & Associates which dates back to its formation in 2008.

        Wartburg, TN is a lovely community just north of Knoxville and it is there that my family called home. After graduation I moved to Knoxville and have worked with clients over the years at two previous firms before becoming a part of Stamper, Zion & Associates. My husband is Ron Keese, who is the founder of Keese Consulting and I find great joy in spending time with my family and our four generations of the Keese Family in East Tennessee.
