I’ve had a dynamic career in operations, sourcing, and marketing. I have worked for small businesses, social enterprises, and nonprofits, and I have also launched two of my own businesses (an apparel company and a health and wellness website). These experiences, along with my MBA from The Ohio State University, enable me to be an invaluable resource for my clients. I love sharing my knowledge, learning from and collaborating with entrepreneurs, and helping clients’ dreams become reality.

I was born and raised in Albemarle County and after spending time in Columbus, Ohio and Nashville, Tennessee, I returned to Virginia to be closer to family.

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