I'm a business woman currently staying at home during a pregnancy with complications.
As a lifelong learner who loves to read and retain information, I'm the go-to source of information. During my graduate studies, I learned so many great tips and tricks regarding finding the most accurate and credible information available online. So now I use my passion for learning and my research skills to help teach and support others online while I comfortably rest at home.
The highlights:
- Master of Business Administration degree, majoring in Management and Strategy, earned from Western Governors University in 2010.
- Bachelor of General Studies degree, focus areas in Social Studies and Business, earned from Youngstown State University in 2008.
- A decade in banking, working primarily as a bank branch manager or a training manager. I've served the public in various roles since 1997, so I've encountered a lot of people with a lot of problems and provided a lot of solutions!
- Small business experience. I've been successfully self-employed since 2012 when I left the bank on good terms to work for myself and dedicate more time to our son. Now, with baby #2 on the way, I'm transitioning to working just from home.
- I'm a thirtysomething mom. Translation: From bargain shopping and coupon codes to removing stains and juggling schedules, I've been there.
- Something different: About a decade ago, I met and quickly began studying with an amazing Shaman from Africa. He taught me everything from how to meditate, how to do a reading, even how to hear from angels and loved ones who have passed. I'm a very spiritual person, though not religious. And I love to help people find peace through spiritual practices. less
Expertise
Business
All aspects of business - from self-employment and start-ups to working for Fortune 100 corporations in leadership roles - I know business from my 15+ years working only in for-profit businesses of all sizes. My MBA is in Management and Strategy.
Business-Management
I've been managing people and processes for over a decade, including delivering quality training on key business topics, from human resources to sales and operational compliance.
Business-Research
To earn my regionally accredited master's degree in business, I conducted intensive business research for two years. I know how to find top quality sources of business information, and more importantly, how to extract relevant data from a source and translate it into effective business advice.
