I was raised on meat and potatoes and taught early on that relationships matter. I believe in the power of creativity and wrap myself up in projects that most would view as far-fetched.

Competition is in my blood and motivates me every day. I tell bad jokes, laugh at my own stories and drink too much coffee. I am a proud wife, mama to three beautiful kiddos & an accomplished professional with expertise in business development, relationship management, visual storytelling, and fundraising.  

I’m passionate about advocating for causes that matter—whether it’s raising awareness for food allergies or helping people find more joy and fulfillment in their lives, I am committed to making a meaningful impact.

I graduated summa cum laude from South Dakota State University with dual Bachelor of Science degrees in Advertising and Apparel Merchandising.

Beyond my career, I’m the proud creator of Miracle Mugs, a Bush Foundation Change-maker, an OTA Builder, and once fulfilled a lifelong dream of being a CNBC Deal or No Deal case model while sharing my story on a national stage. Always a forward-thinker, I’m constantly chasing the next big adventure. What’s next? Only God knows—but I’m ready to follow wherever the journey leads.

If you’re looking for a speaker who brings energy, passion, and real-life stories to the table, reach out via email! I’d love to collaborate and make your next event unforgettable.
