Amanda Oaks is the co-founder of Walk Your Plans Nashville alongside her husband James, pioneering immersive design visualization in the construction and architecture industry. Their Nashville-based facility uses cutting edge full scale projection technology that allows professionals to walk through digital blueprints at actual size before construction begins.
Amanda works directly with architects, designers, builders, and real estate professionals across residential, commercial, and healthcare sectors, helping them visualize projects with unprecedented accuracy and catch potential issues before they become costly problems. Her approach to client success has established Walk Your Plans Nashville as a trusted partner for professionals who demand precision in their design process.

Live Music by Trey Ackerman
Trey Ackerman is a Nashville-based songwriter and third-generation musician whose songs carry the grit of life and the grace of memory. Raised in a legendary musical family, Trey had his first cut at age 12 and later earned acclaim as both a drummer and a jazz guitarist before returning to his storytelling roots. His lyrics blend cinematic imagery with emotional truth—whether capturing a ghost’s longing in “The Call,” the ache of lost love in “Love Dies on the Vine,” or the freedom of letting go in “Along for the Ride.” A regular performer at songwriter venues around Nashville like the Bluebird Cafe, Trey’s voice and vision are rooted in legacy. His songs are lived-in, intimate, and built to last.
