Patsy Peach

Biography

As the Program Assistant for the Bachelor of Science in Public Health and Bachelor of Social Work, I handle any and all of the office requirements. The favorite part of my job is working for and with students (who are the best!) in a one on one basis. I also enjoy working with our faculty who are an outstanding and professional group of people.

I was a stay at home mom for years before becoming a Substitute teacher with the Nashville Metro Schools for 3 years. I have been working with the Belmont Social Work Department since 1997 and the Public Health program since it started just a few years ago. The working environment at Belmont is wonderful because it brings together a rich community of students, faculty, and staff where we all learn from each other. I graduated with my undergraduate degree in Liberal Studies from Belmont in December 2007.

Away from the office, I enjoy spending time with my husband (fondly called 'Peach'), my four daughters, and my eight grandchildren. I am from a very close knit extended family and love getting together to celebrate large to small events with them. I am also very active with my church family. I love to read, play cards, and get together with friends.
