Board of Directors

Scott is a Lexington native. He has been married to his wife, Susan, for over 34 years. He is the pastor of Old Union Christian Church in Lexington where he has served for 32 years. He has 2 children, Michael and Anna, and one amazing grandson, Hendrix. Scott truly believes in the work and mission of FoodChain, and has been volunteering here since 2015.

Anna Cason is a Registered Dietitian who works with the University of Kentucky Cooperative Extension, where she develops and delivers nutrition education. She is passionate about helping people build positive relationships with food and making nourishing food more accessible to everyone. Anna also enjoys sharing her love of movement as a group fitness instructor at a local studio. Outside of work, you can usually find her walking her two dogs, tending to her flower garden, or enjoying good food and time with family and friends. She is excited to serve on the FoodChain board and contribute to its work to increase access to nutritious food and strengthen the local food system.

Originally from Whitesburg, Kentucky, Anne has lived in Lexington most of her life. She attended Furman University in South Carolina for her undergraduate degree, then returned to Lexington to attend the University of Kentucky College of Law.

As she underwent various treatments for a chronic autoimmune condition in 2015, she discovered that what she ate directly impacted her symptoms and quality of life. She strongly believes in increasing food education and access to fresh foods.

Anne practiced with two statewide law firms and clerked for two Federal Judges in the Eastern District of Kentucky before opening her law firm with her husband, Matt. They help families and small businesses plan for the future through estate planning and business advising.

Though she is a lawyer, she has finally broken the habit of starting every sentence with “wherein” or “therefore”. She loves running, camping, practicing yoga, and kayaking, despite being an absolute klutz. She also enjos reading a good book and spending time with her husband, son, and dog (a goat/Wookiee mix).

Becca founded FoodChain in 2011 after a decade working in education, both as a classroom teacher and in the nonprofit sector. She is passionate about food and is committed to ensuring that everyone find access and joy through shared consumption. She served as the Executive Director of FoodChain for 10 years and is excited to work to inspire new ways for sustainable fresh food to be available to everyone in our community. She is a native Lexingtonian, and lives with her husband and two children, who all enjoy cooking and eating together.

Christina has over a decade of experience building strategies and cultivating relationships with various types of member communities. She began as a student worker building databases and managing membership initiatives and volunteer engagement for the UK Medical Alumni Association and UK HealthCare Philanthropy. She later worked at Quest Oracle Community, becoming their Director of Customer Learning where she gained experience in strategic planning, event management, community engagement, content creation and budget management.

In her current role as Director of Strategic Stakeholder Events, Memberships and Administration, Christina leverages her expertise to support the strategic initiatives of the organization.
