“I started my first business in the second grade selling homemade necklaces to my classmates. After an intense falling out with my business partner, who had the audacity of knocking off my designs and selling them at a lower price point, I learned two invaluable life lessons: 1) never trust eight-year-old girls and 2) success in business is rooted in human behavior. My father played a huge role in my love of business. He founded a CNC machine shop in the seventies out of his garage and grew the shop to its current location in Chino, CA. My first hand experience of the blood, sweat, and tears that goes into owning and running a business has given me the heart and unique perspective necessary to help business owners grow. My last nine years of work experience as a Production Manager and HR Specialist has provided me with the perfect formula to effectively solve everyday business problems and improve profitability. With a Master of Science in Organizational Psychology from University of Hartford, a Bachelor of Science in Business Management from FIDM, and a HR Management Certificate from Cal State Fullerton, I combine business strategy, human resources, and I/O psychology to create a plan that can help you get off the hamster wheel and start making impactful changes in your company.”
