During her tenure at NRVTA, Henson worked tirelessly to advance the organization’s mission and support its students. Reflecting on her journey, she expressed gratitude for the opportunities she’s had and the relationships she’s built along the way.

“The past 9-plus years have been a wonderful whirlwind of experiences and goals accomplished,” Henson said. “I’m so thankful for the opportunity to work for the entities my parents and their business partners created. This experience has been amazing, and I truly wish nothing but success for all the businesses under the Anderson/Cooper umbrella.”

As she embarks on the new chapter, her focus shifts towards nurturing and expanding her family businesses, Big Beard Battery and RV Unplugged. With a vision to create a legacy for her family, Henson said she is excited about the opportunities that lie ahead.

“My life is entering a season of change that requires me to be more present for my family,” she said. “We are further developing our own personal businesses to create a family legacy that our children, grandchildren and hopefully their children will be a part of. It is our desire to create, launch, grow and steward a family collection of businesses that will take our kids into their futures with great success.”
