My business centers around creating and implementing ideas. Multimedia production and podcasting are core areas of strength.

Objectives/Goals of being a member of Women on the Fast Track:
I’m interested in helping other women reach their business and personal goals while forming a sisterhood with these women to help me reach mine. I’m interested in learning about local publications like high school sporting event journals where I could take out booster ads. I’m looking for interesting boutiques that would want to take orders for my portraits. I’m looking for connections to people who live in any size house that would like to have a personal heirloom. My work also is great for personalized cards.
After moving to Long Island over a decade ago from St. Louis, I realized that I needed to restructure my entire networking base because I knew no one. Now… I know a ton of wonderful people and I’m happy to share my circle of influence.

We work with traditional and non-traditional families as well as blended families.
Objectives/Goals of being a member of Women on the Fast Track:
As mediators, it’s important to help our clients make informed decisions. To that end, I am interested in meeting other professionals who can help us aid our clients. We have developed a resource portfolio of professionals such as career coaches, accountants, financial planners, mental health professionals, etc. We want to be able to offer quality services whenever needed. Over the years, I have established relationships with a number of experts as well to whom I can refer other members of WOTFT. I enjoy connecting people. I have tried other networking groups and have found them lacking in one way or the other. Mostly I feel that they are generally too large and anonymous to ever feel that I belong and can make a difference. I prefer the intimacy of a smaller group setting.
