Today we welcome Sister Tisho Holtby Jessop, Pi Epsilon, to Chi O Living! Tisho usually describes herself as “Wife, Aunt, Dog Lover & Komen supporter. Working every day to keep my promise to my Aunt Barbara”.

Tisho moved around most of her early childhood and finally settled on the east coast where she attended high school in Virginia. She stayed in Virginia for college and eventually moved to Maryland when she married her husband Stuart in 1998. They relocated to the Atlanta area in 2016.

When she’s not playing Aunt to her 11 nieces & nephews, you can find her traveling the world, one bite at a time. Her favorite activity in a new country is to find a local grocery store and buy one of each cookie and potato chip to experience new treats.

Tisho works for Event 360, an event management company specializing in peer-to-peer fundraising events, and spends her workdays coaching participants on ways to fundraise and achieve their physical goals – in most cases to walk 60 miles in three days for the Susan G. Komen 3-Day. She not only talks the talk, she also walks the walk, having walked the 3-Day eight times and raising over $31,000 in the fight to end breast cancer. She walks in memory of her Aunt Barbara.

She was initiated into Chi Omega at the Pi Epsilon chapter at Roanoke College and is currently an active member of the Atlanta Chi Omega Alumnae Association.
