"I have been working with designers for over a decade now and you all are the most intelligent, sweet, sassy, passionate, interesting, fun and beautiful group of people I have ever come across. I adore each and every one of my clients and I couldn’t imagine dedicating myself to any other industry. We are all given a gift. You were given the ability to see into people, understand their needs, envision possibility and miraculously translate that into their environment, facilitating better lives, more successful businesses and happiness. My gift is the ability to help you more powerfully tap into your potential. I believe that when you take your business to the next level, whatever that is for you, it has a ripple effect on your whole life. You feel clearer, more organized, more empowered, more abundant and these things permeate through all areas of your life. Reaching your potential and using your business as a vehicle for wealth, expression and fulfilment takes a special kind of person. You are driven by a higher power, a greater meaning and a deep yearning to make your mark on this world. I understand you. I understand your business in a way that no one else does. I have worked with hundreds of firms of every type, large and small, complex and simple models and because of this I have a very broad frame of reference. I understand where you are on the spectrum of similar firms and I intuitively see very clearly your growth trajectory. I am honest, fair, transparent, reliable, direct, sensitive and driven to see my beloved clients flourish. I will push you and will always tell you what you need to hear, not just what you want to hear. I have a gift for understanding the unspoken and seeing people’s hearts and their true potential. I have been given the gift of clarity, I can see the path for each of you and I do my best to help you navigate it. I am extremely intuitive, yet pragmatic.
