Upcoming Events

I am Wendy Scruggs, born in Roanoke, Alabama, raised in Chattanooga, Tennessee. I come from a large and loving family with three siblings, nine nieces and nephews and nine great nieces and nephews. During the COVID-19 pandemic (2020-2021), I had the privilege of being a foster parent, welcoming over 20 children into my home. From that incredible experience, I gained a beloved Goddaughter and God-granddaughter. I earned my Bachelor of Science from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga and a Master of Science Administration from Central Michigan University. I am an active member of Delta Sigma Theta Inc. sorority. I’m an eight-year Veteran of the United States Navy (Reserves), where I proudly served as Religious Program Specialist. My professional journey includes serving as a Public Health Advisor for the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). I later spent 17 years at Janssen, a subsidiary of Johnson and Johnson, as an Immunology Specialist, selling within the Gastroenterology Division. I took an early retirement from there. Currently, I am a Hospital Business Manager with the Sanofi Vaccines Division. Fun Facts: Before knee injuries, surgeries and car accidents I was quite the adventurer! I enjoyed snow skiing, playing softball, and scuba diving!!! I continue to enjoy reading, traveling, fine dining, attending festivals, concerts, and most importantly, spending quality time with family and friends. My passion is to help the underserved/marginalized community, especially teenage girls-by encouraging, inspiring, and empowering them to reach their fullest potential.
