Perry joined a cohort of 11 local leaders for the sixth annual campaign, an initiative designed to combat heart disease and stroke through public awareness. Her commitment to the cause stems from personal history: she lost her father to a stroke and her brother to a heart attack, while her mother managed chronic cardiovascular conditions throughout Perry's youth. These experiences drive her focus on educating the public about risk factors and early warning signs.

Beyond her advocacy, Perry maintains a prominent profile in the financial sector. She previously earned spots on the Memphis Business Journal’s Super Women in Business list and was recognized as part of American Banker’s Most Powerful Women in Banking Top Teams. At First Horizon, she oversees operations for the $84.4 billion institution, leading teams that have secured performance excellence awards in Tennessee. Her work continues to bridge the gap between corporate leadership and local community health advocacy.
