Amy Kersey
Amy is a military mom blogger who likes pushing into the hard. Her most recent work was in partnership with We Are Fresh Kids, an independent food company re-imagining healthy snacks for kids. Though new to military life, she's always up for an adventure - even when it includes cockroaches (thank you San Antonio). Amy is passionate about giving hope through the power of words. She enjoys reading a good book while cozying up to a warm latte. She's transparent and authentic. You can follow her personal journey at fiercewindwildfire.com.
