Jasmine Ball
Hi, I’m Jasmine Ball – wife, mom, and founder of BTM Writing Services. My days are usually divided between being a stay-at-home mom of an energetic 2-year-old (Trinity), running my home-based business, and getting to know what all Knoxville has to offer. I’m originally from Selma, AL, and have since lived in a few different states before settling down in Knoxville, TN in 2019 with Chris – my husband of 7 years (together for 12 years). Since we’re newer to Knoxville, we mostly spend our time getting used to what life looks like now as new parents in a new state in a pandemic. It’s a whole new world and we’re ready to take on the new adventures. If you're a new mom that likes staying connected, you can follow us along @jasminethewriter on Instagram (and everywhere else).
