Dr. Kelly Martin & Nathan Wright

Coffee County

Dr. Kelly Martin and Nathan Wright are stepping onto the Let's Dance stage with open hearts, big smiles, and a shared passion for supporting their community through WCTE PBS.

Dr. Kelly Martin, an optometrist with Middle TN Eye, is embracing this exciting opportunity to try something new, have fun, and support a cause she believes in deeply. A strong advocate for public television, Kelly recognizes the vital role WCTE plays in delivering free, local programming-from educational content for children to emergency alerts and lifelong learning resources. Outside the exam room, she's often enjoying a cup at Manchester Coffee, cheering on SEC football, or spending time with her son and their four lovable pets. Guided by her faith, Kelly finds joy in serving others, whether through healthcare or simple acts of kindness.

Her dance partner, Nathan Wright, is the Vice President of IT for United Derm Partners in Smyrna. Nathan thrives on experiences that push him outside his comfort zone, and Let's Dance offers the perfect mix of challenge, community, and creativity. He believes music and dance are powerful sources of healing and joy-bringing people together both on and off the stage. A lifelong supporter of PBS, Nathan values WCTE for its educational impact, trustworthy content, and unwavering support for local communities. Grounded by faith and family, he embraces every opportunity to grow, connect, and give back.
