From Waitress to Wall Street
You don't have to be great to start. But you have to start to be great.
The purpose of this website is to provide clarity and meaningful insight into the many layers of my multi-faceted professional life, beyond the linear resume and content on LinkedIn or other resources.
I knew at an early age that I would have a career in the insurance industry and own my own business. I’ve always been street smart, I have a relentless work ethic, I possess a great enthusiasm for life and for people, and I know how to hustle and follow through. I was determined to make a tremendous, positive impact on as many lives as possible - a passion and purpose that still fires me up every day.
I found my superpower along the way. My superpower is the ability to take something extremely complicated and boring that nobody else wants to deal with, consume it wholly, then serve it back up to others in an unintimidating, helpful and impactful way - and do so with contagious enthusiasm!

Continuous improvement is better than delayed perfection. - Mark Twain
I strive to continuously evolve.... to embrace change and keep learning from everything and everyone around me. But more than anything, I want to share my knowledge, my network, my resources and my experiences. I enjoy helping others be successful, and consider myself to be the ultimate wingman. I want to use my gifts to encourage people to be brave and focus on achieving their goals faster.
My advice on how to navigate your journey?
Own it. Love it. Go for it. No excuses. Life is long – not short. Make the most of every day by packing in fulfilling, meaningful experiences and relationships. Success happens when you ignite passion, grit, vulnerability and bravery into your daily tasks – with purposeful direction following realistic dreams.
