Overcoming adversity has been a skill I've had since pre-conception. As my parents were told they would never have children, I fought my way into this world and have persevered, bringing success in whatever I put my mind to.

After 25 years in business management, from small privately-owned companies to large corporate organizations, I've had some amazing accomplishments. From my earliest working experience where I constantly climbed the leadership ladder, I was able to consult, speak and teach with such prestigious organizations as Columbia University, the New York State Police and Wal-Mart Stores, to name a few.

In 2011, my family and I found ourselves homeless after Hurricane Irene. Losing most everything we owned, we came back and persevered to put our lives back together. I put my best game face on until in the spring of 2013 I landed in the hospital with what I thought was a heart attack, but surprise it was just little old stress rearing it's ugly head.

This was the catalyst for You Leading You, my mission, to share my experience and knowledge to help other leaders learn and grow.

To find their own success and happiness.

To lead themselves to their dreams.

Today I share the message through the business show, You Leading You, with insightful lessons from amazing leaders sharing their stories of success. Speaking and facilitating lessons on leadership with organizations and contributing to such influential platforms as The Huffington Post, The Good Men Project, Addicted 2 Success, and others.
