Personal Notes

25 years ago, I found myself sitting on my living floor with my baby girl – a single mom, over $200,000 in debt and only making $10k a year. In that moment, I decided I didn’t want to live like that anymore. Over the course of several years, I paid off the debt and began building the financial life that I wanted to have. My mission is to educate and empower others to live the life that they want to live.
