About Me

I specialize in training reps to become account managers.

From a young age, I was always entrepreneurial, taking on odd jobs like babysitting and car washing starting at age ten; that drive to be independent and resourceful has definitely stayed with me. This active energy carries over into my travel style, as I prefer hiking and exploring over lounging, with Alaska currently at the top of my must-visit list. When I’m not exploring, I spend time on skills unrelated to my career, such as painting with acrylics and oils as a self-taught artist. I also find peace in gardening, which is a hobby I do purely for myself to recharge and reconnect with nature. It has been an interesting challenge learning what thrives in a desert climate, and I’ve discovered that hardy plants like roses do great with both the intense heat and the cold desert nights. Professionally, I hold an Associate’s degree in Business and previously worked in the residential real estate industry as an appraiser.

Outside of work, I enjoy channeling my creativity into DIY home improvement projects, staying active through pickleball, and spending time gardening. I value being outdoors, experimenting with new recipes, and continuously learning new skills. I strive to maintain a healthy balance between creativity, wellness, and personal growth.
