Made Right Here is sponsored and produced by The IT Company and we are telling the stories of East Tennessee founders, creators, and builders, and their journey to creating successful organizations. From the idea behind it, to the impact it had on the community, their employees and their own lives, we’re taking listeners, and viewers, behind the scenes of the movements they built and the people who helped build them!

In part one we hear Ronni's story of growing up in East Knoxville and the challenges and successes that led her to becoming the woman she is today.

Ronni shares her journey of getting pregnant in high school and her motivation to still graduate and then go on to college. We hear her powerful story of experiencing the loss of child to suicide and the ways she has used that experience to build a way to support kids and families through similar circumstances.

As an African American, female entrepreneur- Ronni Chandler's story is one full of resilience, determination and grit.
