Background Growing up in the Midwest has given me a grounded approach to my business. My clients are important, their needs are a priority, their success is my ultimate goal. You don't work with someone without building trust, and my first consultation will be my opportunity to prove this to you. I lived in the suburbs of Chicago, which helped to draw my attention to Indiana University. After graduating with both Business and Telecommunication degrees, I took a financial position with a bank, prior to getting offered the opportunity to earn my Master's from Hawaii Pacific University. After leaving Honolulu, I started work with a small business organization in State College, Pennsylvania. Shortly after, I was asked to come aboard the Smeal College of Business, where I taught, mentored, and consulted for the University. I returned to Bloomington, and ultimately a job with Ivy Tech Community College. Shortly after, I was hired by the State of Indiana to work at the Small Business Development Center. My goal is to continue to bring community, business, and education together. You must have all three in order to be successful. Hard work, honesty, and respect is what I give to each of my clients.
