Angelica
Hi, I'm Angelica and I'm brand new to Knoxville, having packed everything up and driving here from Florida! I own both Maple Street Biscuit Company restaurants here in Knoxville, and I'm the single momma to a sweet little girl. I believe in empowering other women. I will always be a shoulder, your cheerleader, the one who keeps it real with you, and the one to make you laugh. I'm also awkward and love Harry Potter.
