banking, non-profit, healthcare, and career transition. She was awarded the
Career Management Practitioner Certification, trained and certified in the
Myers-Briggs Assessment and also a Certified Consumer Credit Counselor.
In her career transition business, she noticed that the majority of people don't spend
their time planning for their future. Did we plan our life or
did life just come at us fast? It's not too late for any of us
to make a change and start designing our lives. Are you ready
to make the change?
