I am the founder of Inspired Tenacity Global Solutions Inc., where I serve as a Disruptor and Catalyst, dedicated to improving the lives of women locally and globally. I help women rediscover their brilliance, find their voice, and explore new possibilities in life.

I am an international speaker and 13-time #1 bestselling author, inspiring readers to reach for their big goals. I have created a platform for women to share their stories and wisdom in compilation books. My program guides aspiring authors from chapter concept to published bestselling author. Additionally, I organize retreats worldwide for women to build community and share their passions.

A decade ago, I transitioned from a 25-year career in Medical Genetics to financial planning to focus on helping women improve their lives. After over a decade as a financial planner, I founded Inspired Tenacity to help women achieve success on their terms. I am passionate about learning and have certifications in leadership, counseling, success principles, and strategies for overcoming limiting beliefs and mindset.
