Jack McElroy of the News Sentinel writes, “Brenna relocated to Knoxville from Columbia, Mo., where she was group editor/director of content for the Business Times Co. and editor of the Columbia Business Times. In that role last year, she earned a spot on the Folio 30 Under 30 list, which recognizes young leaders who will be shaping the future of the magazine media industry.

“Before that, Brenna, a graduate of Truman State University, was director of women’s network at the Columbia Chamber of Commerce.
