It took me a while but I finally figured out what I wanted to be when I grew up: an advisor and cheerleader for small business owners. I love collaborating with entrepreneurs and championing their visions.

I have worked for small businesses and nonprofits in various capacities, including marketing, purchasing, operations, and client management. I have also launched two of my own businesses, an apparel company and a health and wellness website. Consulting allows me to use all of the skills I have learned throughout my career and I really enjoy the many hats I get to wear.

As an undergraduate at Ohio State University, I studied fashion, retail, and product development. After working for a few years after graduation, I returned to Ohio State to earn my MBA. Go Buckeyes!

In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my husband and two little kids, doing small home improvement projects, and going on adventures with friends. Also, don’t be surprised if my hair color suddenly changes — I like to be creative in work and life.
