I semi-retired from the corporate track in 2022. As I enter into a slower lifestyle my friend and personal chiropractor of 24 years asked if I knew anyone to help his high vibe office part time running his laser division. Ironically, I sold Dr Longo his Class IV Laser in 2015 while in orthopedic sales! I am thrilled to support his patients with a beautiful healing modality.

My interest in yoga started in 2006. I would prefer to run and do high impact classes, but I avoided a serious back surgery in 2000 by swimming, yoga and biking. I now teach fitness classes that focus on flexibility and core strength to maintain a lifestyle that focusses on a healthy spine.

Hired with 14 other executives in the US to initiate Maui Jim’s iconic brand’s newest launch: MJO Ophthalmic Division. My success was rapid opening an average of three accounts per month. My first year I reached quota at 106%. I helped launch a 76 door account: Shopko Optical. This brand is a stand alone in style and optics. Italian and Japan made frames and US proprietary lenses. It was my honor to work at Maui Jim. I semi-retired from corporate and travel in 2022. Maui Jim was sold and their ophthalmic division was closed 6 months after leaving the company. Their sun division is amazing! #lovemauijim
