Tell us about yourself
I started my first business as a consultant to an industry defense contractor. The manager asked me if I wanted to go solo and start my own business. He gave me a contract with no competitive bids, and that is how it started. Little did I know this decision was the beginning of a wonderful journey and many amazing adventures with my clients. I was dating an entrepreneur at the time, and he encouraged me to take the leap of faith and start out on my own in 2004 was my first business. This happened so fast and without much effort. I have learned and keep learning more every day, which motivates my team and me to provide the best value to our customers at the highest ethical standards. We take that very seriously, and if we can't provide the value they are looking for, then we will recommend other coaches or companies that can meet our customers' needs.

We enjoy working with leadership and seeing their vision come to life! The key that unlocks the doors to success is creating an environment where best practices and servant leadership promote an atmosphere of outcome-driven behaviors, which is the heartbeat of a highly productive enterprise!
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
I think one of the hardest things a business owner will have to face is fear of the unknown and being comfortable outside that sphere of influence. This is where the rubber meets the road for a business owner and where the character is born!
