Chelsea Thomas of Holy City Med Urgent & Primary Care

CW: When did you decide to go into the business you are in?
“I stumbled into the health care space many years ago and realized it was where I wanted to stay. Fast-forward to January 9, 2020, when Holy City Med opened, and I had my dream job.”

CW: Who influences you in your life currently?
“My incredible boss, Frank Wells, is a daily influence for me. Working alongside someone who shares the same values, work ethic and fierce love for their family (including our work family) is the biggest blessing.”

CW: If you could have dinner with anyone (alive or passed away), who would it be and why?
“I would give anything to have dinner with my grandma, Marilyn Williams, who passed away when I was 3. I attribute so much of the business woman I am to the legacy she left in my life that my mom keeps alive. She was a single mom of three, working three jobs to provide without ever receiving assistance. She ended up owning her own business, and I’m so deeply proud of who she was and how she never gave up.”

CW: Tell us about your family.
“My mama is my rock, always shows me unshakable faith and is by far the strongest woman I know. My daddy is my heart strings and taught me unconditional love. My stepdad is the perfect example of incredible work ethic and selfless love. My sister has my favorite laugh and she is my best friend. My fiancé is the reason I smile the way I do. He is my partner in all things and the greatest love of my life.”
