In my 20’s, I was a CPA with PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC).  In my 30’s, I became a tech company CFO. After working with my first executive coach, I transitioned into an intrapreneur role within that company and moved overseas to lead international expansion. 

At the age of 40, I lost my job the same month my divorce was final.  With two children in private school, two mortgages and a lease payment on a BMW, I needed the ability to earn a lot of money.  As a mother of school-aged children, I also needed flexibility.

Not only did I need to diversify my income, but I also committed to never again be at the mercy of a single person for my financial livelihood.  During the recession year of 2009, I launched my fractional CFO practice.  By the end of my first year in business, I matched my ending salary at PwC.  In my second year in business, I matched my previous full-time CFO salary.  During my third year in business, I exceeded my full-time CFO salary.  With the addition of team members, the business soon exceeded $1m in revenue.  

Now in my early 50’s, I’m financially independent and debt-free, living in my dream home at the beach with my wonderful husband.  I’ve fully embraced life as an entrepreneur with multiple streams of income.  I’m able to pursue my passion to empower individuals to achieve financial independence through entrepreneurship.
