There’s a saying along the lines of “All that has happened before you came to this point in your life was preparation for this moment.” I think it’s fitting for my current role in helping small business owners with their financials, cleaning up and demystifying what can be a messy, confusing black box of numbers.I've previously been a process and controls auditor, a talent management consultant, a keynote speaker and instructor, and a creative game designer (plus being game lover myself). I've led projects to build systems, establish SOPs, and train organizations (including my own), to run more efficiently and effectively, with autonomy and accountability.Now, I use that experience to help entrepreneurs who have grown a fantastic business, but are drowning in a sea of financial minutiae. Together, we reduce stress over cashflow by focusing on exactly the nuggets of information they need to make smart business decisions that grow the bottom line, increase their own compensation and give them more time freedom. I enable financial literacy by building simple, repeatable, and delegatable systems that are clear and easy to understand. No more mess. No more confusion. No more black box.♦ PROVEN LEADER DRIVING CHANGE & GROWTHWhether it’s within organizations I worked for, or those I started on my own, I've guided teams through critical inflection points with analytical precision to achieve and exceed goals. Under my leadership, companies have reached their next evolution, including rolling out nationwide diversity strategies, completing business mergers, outperforming operations budget forecasts, and executing business-saving pandemic pivots.♦ PROCESS-ORIENTED & CREATIVE PROFESSIONALBalanced with my career start as a Certified Public Accountant, my personal experience as an artist and game designer trained me to use both left- and right-brain strengths to solve problems and achieve results, and it's my goal to empower others to do the same. I've implemented creative strategies in multi-media training delivery and virtualization of services, while being backed by foundational, data-driven analysis.♦ PASSIONATE SPEAKER & EVENT FACILITATORAs a former ballroom dancer and stage performer, I'm always excited to get behind the mic for audiences of any size, whether it’s on camera, on stage, or online. Recent keynotes include financial fundamentals for small businesses, the art of storytelling, and holistic self-care. I'm a seasoned L&D instructor, panel facilitator and participant, and event host/emcee.
