two things that speak to my heart are great communication and a good cup of coffee.
My love for both are deeply rooted in the Pacific Northwest, where I grew up. And yes! Since I know you’re going to ask – I was a barista. It’s a rite of passage when you grow up in the greater Seattle area. At the time, my father was a small business owner. From a young age, I have had a deep appreciation for the hard work entrepreneurs are up against. One of my earliest jobs was going in to answer the phones for his company.
Since my husband is in the military, we travel often. As in – if you average out our moves, we “travel” about once a year. We currently live in beautiful Colorado Springs! My formal training and love for people guided me into freelance work while we lived in Upstate NY, where I taught countless seminars and worked closely with hundreds of small businesses to improve their online presence.
These experiences and the friendships created along the way have only served to grow my passion for small business support and marketing! I knew after working as a freelance marketing specialist for over 4 years, and working in and around marketing for 6, that I wanted to start my own company.
I was tired of the endless job search and the tedious nature of the 9-5. As a military wife, I needed something I could bring with me wherever I went, and it led me here. In January of 2019, my husband gave me the push I needed to start this company. He knew exactly what I needed and when.
I’m so thankful for the opportunity to serve others. To work hand in hand with their business. To aid in their daily struggle. To be a sounding board. To offer tough love and advice. I don’t take that trust lightly. This job, this community – means the world to me.
A few of my favorite things include: coffee, hiking in the mountains, a good rain storm, digging my toes into sand, the smell of salt air, exploring new places and things, the early morning breeze in the summer, my sweet cocker spaniel/poodle mix: Toby and spending as much time as possible with my incredibly supportive husband.
life is sweet. and It’s so much sweeter with all of you!
