Following my separation with Ashley Global Retail at the end of 2022, I took a year to myself and dropped "off the grid" professionally. This turned into an extraordinary opportunity of both recovery and discovery. I reconnected at a deep level with my family and my faith, and what emerged from this was a uniquely different person than my previous version. I am blessed to have learned through this process that "retirement" isn't for me. My desire to support the success of individuals and organizations has never been greater. My approach is based on wins and losses over many years, all contributing to a hyper-focused growth mindset rooted in truth.
