Elizabeth Wagner is a 5th generation Charlestonian and a 3rd generation James Islander.

After working as a neurosurgical nurse for ten years, she became a stay-at-home mom of their now four kids.

In 2016, after the birth of her third child, she started Island Bloom Herbals. She makes homemade elderberry syrup, cough syrup, and herbal teas. She and her husband are beekeepers and have three hives in their backyard. Elizabeth and her husband also love to dive.
