A tenured business development professional with 16 years of experience in education, a former S.C.O.R.E. Mentor, procurement expert, and 20 + years experience in business. I’ve developed online corporate training courses in the area of procurement/entrepreneurship and I speak on many subject matters in the area of economic development and financial management. I am a corporate trainer, career coach, sales executive, financial strategist, and proposal writer. My career goal is to continue meeting the needs of communities through education, while assisting companies with their growth. I have also designed strategic capital campaigns and investment portfolios for small to medium businesses and written proposals to fund educational programs through sponsorships and grants. As an educational consultant, I have helped learning centers and schools by creating opportunities for professionals to teach entrepreneurship to children and youth. I hope to partner with organizations and individuals who empower communities across the globe.Specialties: I hold a MBA with a specialty in Public Administration and a Doctorate in Educational Leadership with a specialty in Education Technology. I have trained business owners and their staff in leadership development as it relates to retention and revenue. I am versed in non-profit budgeting and restructuring. “Many times companies are able to develop budgets to support strategic growth, however they may lack the vision to identify the funds in their budget. This is where I come in. Growth is all about identifying what's working and what's not working. With my team, we've developed accounting systems to help mitigate challenges of stifled growth.”
