Coming from very humble beginnings and a small inner city in Northwest Indiana, I grew up dreaming of the day that I could be my own boss. I remember being as young as 10, negotiating allowances, delegating chores, and bargaining punishments with the goal of creating a win-win situation for everyone involved. Growing up in a close family circuit, I spent countless years surrounded by family entrepreneurs who were molding me then into the Womenpreneur that I am today.

It was at the early age of 18,when I realized I had gained valuable experience and knowledge that would guide me down my path of entrepreneurship. During my time, I've worked with several businesses large and small from entrepreneurial startups to Fortune 500 corporations. I've read thousands of books and articles and even received a M.B.A. with distinction. In my early 20's, I made over a million in sales simply by implementing the skills that I acquired as an entrepreneur. Since then,I have bootstrapped 3 businesses,sold everything from cutlery products to electrical switchgear and mentored many entrepreneurs along the way.

My leadership, products, and advice are sought out by entrepreneurs across the globe. My unique ability has enabled my business to gain popularity and rapid growth. I have helped hundreds of people during my career and pride myself on my ability to turn their "dream business into a reality" while equipping them with tools to become a savvy entrepreneur.In 2010 and beyond,I am set to leave an indelible mark in the minds of entrepreneurs across the globe.
