Adria Butcher
Adria is a marketing and communications professional who moved from Louisiana’s Cajun country to the Dallas area more than 25 years ago. Her professional career has been defined by versatility and excellence, beginning her journey as a producer before following a calling to education. Adria dedicated the majority of her education tenure at Prosper High School as the English Department Chair and was named Secondary Teacher of the Year in 2016.
Returning to corporate, Adria has spent the last decade at a leading technology company, where she’s spanned corporate and executive communications, as well as digital and field marketing. Her commitment to integrity and client focus earned her multiple department honors, including the highest Marketing Excellence Award.
Adria owns The Bespoken Avant, a color analysis and image consulting business, and with her husband, co-owns OT Sport Ops, a sports technology company. She holds a B.A. in Mass Communications (cum laude) from Nicholls State University and an M.A. in English (summa cum laude) from Texas A&M at Commerce.
Adria has been married to her college sweetheart, Eric, for more than 25 years, and they have one son, Dax.
“The very first time I met Jennifer, she told me about 3FTL, and immediately, I knew I wanted to be involved. Her passion was personal and evident, and it was clear we aligned on how much they deserve help when they need it – it’s the least we can do since they show up for us when we need it most. I’m reminded of the quote from Mister Rogers: “When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, 'Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.'" I can cite several personal experiences where me or my family have been directly impacted by their care and vigilance – the true helpers of our community. They are the ones who are willing to sacrifice it all for strangers, and in turn, they deserve whatever support is needed to heal for themselves and their loved ones. God calls us to serve, and I’m honored and humbled to be a part of this vital organization.”
