I've seen small businesses succeed and fail and it generally relates back to two major influences: people and cash flow. My education and life experiences give me the ability to understand the psyche of both business owners & employees. This unique combination provides me the opportunity to really enhance the lives of those that I am able to work alongside.Like many visionaries and entrepreneurs, I like wearing multiple hats in my professional life. I founded my first business in 2007 and just sold it in 2022 to my first potential franchisee. In commercial real estate, I focus on finding run-down hotels in Midwest markets that have a high demand for affordable housing for the workforce. I run the full acquisition and pre-construction process to convert it into market-rate affordable housing. We raise capital from Accredited Investors that are interested in this strategy, combine it with our own capital and start the redevelopment process. It you are interested in learning more about this investment strategy; Book a call with me!Then, because I am a workaholic, I also started an amazing franchise with my husband. He has been in the car wash industry since 2013 and knows a thing or two about it ;) We took his expertise in the IBA car wash segment and my B2C experience, franchise experience and business consulting background and formed Koala Wash™. We are actively looking for potential franchisees who love the idea of a strong cashflow business model with minimal to no staffing.
