I joined a marketing program in my junior year and was part of a work-study program at that time. The marketing class and my teacher helped me discover myself. While in school, I tried a few jobs, like Burger King, which I hated. So, I landed a job with my mom at a podiatrist's office and worked there for 10 years. While I did it to have money in the bank, my entrepreneurial spirit was always alive. In my last year of high school, I became president of the marketing club, met the man I'm married to today, got pregnant, bought a house, got married, and graduated—all in the same year! That was a success in my book. Even while having kids and working, I always juggled 10 things at once.

Over the next 20 years, I held many different jobs and roles: I was a trustee of our subdivision, president of a 4x4 drive club, vice president of FFIC, a planning and zoning commissioner, built a direct sales business with Homemade Gourmet with a large team, and developed a business, offering family financial plans. From there, I became a children's director at my church, helping to run and build the church. I've run networking groups, masterminds, and events, had business partnerships, volunteered for numerous organizations, and have been involved in radio and podcasts. I was a professional organizer, family manager, and coach.

I share this because I want you to know that my biggest success has been growing my family amidst all of this. My faith in God has guided me through each day, alongside the incredible people he has brought into my life. These people have impacted me on many levels, being part of my life through the ups and downs. I am grateful for each of YOU! Without all the people who believed in me, I wouldn't be where I am today. Many years had been filled with financial stress, chaos, lots of tears, and many restless nights, but I would do it all over again. I am a very successful and established woman who is just getting started!
