My Story
It wasn't the life I planned, but it's sure been interesting! I have a Masters Degree in Theater from the U. of Michigan. Decided I liked eating more than going to "cattle calls," I started work as a temporary typist in NYC, just when the tech boom was starting. The companies I temped for discovered that I could actually figure things out and lured me into a 25+ year career in technology. I worked and consulted for companies such as IBM, UPS, Principal Financial, Verizon, etc. I helped run an international software users group (IDUG) and was elected the first woman president of the board of directors.
Frustrated with Corporate America, I became a credentialed coach and started my own company. It's morphed through several incarnations and now is well-positioned to provide the wisdom and support that women small business owners need.- My passion:
- Why I started my business:
- Why I joined the M3 RACE:
- Best business advice:
- My biggest challenge:
- What helps my business grow:
- How I balance work/life:
- Within five years, my business will:

I'm So Excited! -- M3 Leadership Board
November 1, 2009
It's so exciting to be part of the Make Mine a Million Q3 Leadership Board! And an honor to be in the company of other fabulous women. M3 definitely helped me get focused on paying attention to my own business, starting exactly where I tell my clients to start -- with financials! What M3 taught me, though was some additional things I needed to be looking at. With the help of my bookkeeper, the fabulous Pat Carson of Carson and Crew, I was able to hone in even further on my finanical goals, and correct some missteps.Hiring Pat in 2009 was only the beginning. I've found a virtual assistant after a great deal of looking and we are in the beginnings of our relationship. My husband, Ken, the Web Mechanic, has also done some work for me! The next person I'm searching for is a solid writer who isn't out of my price range.What fun!
