As someone who has both worked with and been a part of the C-Suite, she understands what the Visionary Leader of a scaling business needs most and she created the Lean Out Method® and Lean Business Scaling System™ to address their unique needs and create the ecosystem that enables them to scale in simple and sustainable ways.

When she's not dishing out the merits of simple and sustainable scaling, you can find her drinking espresso, rocking out with Bret Michaels, enjoying a spa day, or snuggled up with her 2 pups and a great book. She is an avid traveler - always embarking on new adventures.
