The Kyriakidis family is no stranger in the Chattanooga area. Relocating from NYC in 1982, they first opened Little Athens before moving on to The Acropolis in ’95. Progressing from wearing diapers to wearing aprons, Teddy grew up in the restaurant, working alongside his father to achieve the “American Dream” through customer service, honest business, and hard work, while also learning the value of money.
After graduating from McCallie, Teddy studied psychology and economics at Emory University and later earned his master’s in organizational psychology. After leaving The Acropolis, Teddy continued in hospitality management, serving his last seven years as the foodservice director at Southern Adventist University.
He currently resides in Ooltewah with his wife and two children, where he enjoys cooking, hiking, lounging in the pool, and watching Hallmark movies. At Franklin Wealth, Teddy combines his business acumen and customer focus to provide personalized financial guidance to our clients.
