I grew up in Kansas City, Missouri and moved to Chicagoland in 1993.

After a 27-year career in corporate America, I made the bold decision to leap into entrepreneurship, which was both thrilling and scary. I’m so thankful to be doing what I love, and I haven’t looked back!

I met my husband on Match.com (yes, we are an online dating success!). We hit it off right from our first date over Mexican food (my FAVORITE), and the rest is history.

As a Christian, my faith is extremely important to me. I am a continual work in progress to be the best version of who God made me to be,

I don’t have children, so as a devoted dog lover and proud dog mom, my fur-children have always held a special place in my heart. I know you’re not supposed to have favorite ‘kids’, but Blue was mine. He acted more like a human than a dog and I miss him dearly. Our second fur-child, Shadow, has (thankfully) come a long way since the early years, and has also taught me a great deal of patience and resilience (that is, after he put me in the hospital!) We always say, “it’s a good thing he’s cute!” :) As of January 2025, we have our first rescue dog. Bailey Blue. She is the sweetest dog - often coming into my office throughout the day and giving me hugs. We all love her!

A few fun facts:

• I can’t swim even though I’ve taken lessons twice.

• I stayed in a hostel by myself the first time I visited London - and I survived!

• My favorite movie is Tommy Boy.

• I get stressed out (and end up burning something) when I am preparing too many dishes at once.

• My pet peeve is when people don’t park straight in a parking spot.

As you can see, I’m not perfect and I don’t expect that you should be either.

If you believe we're a good fit, I'd be thrilled to explore how I can support you on your journey to a more fulfilling, purposeful, and impactful life!
