    Every time I feel exhausted, discouraged, and like giving up, if I persevere for just a little while longer, a big success always seems to be right around the corner. It's the storm before the rainbow people. Hang in there!

About Me

I feel privileged to have accomplished so much at such a young age.

In my early twenties, I developed a relationship-based marketing model for which I gained international recognition within the auto industry. This dramatically impacted my career because in just a few short years I was able to move from an entry-level position to a seat at the boardroom table.

Shortly thereafter, I was hired to serve as vice president of marketing for a renowned wealth management group where I went on to acquire my General Securities and Investment Advisor registrations from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). At 26, I became vice president of a financial planning corporation managing over $190,000,000, and that I am still a part of today. Early in 2009, I cofounded a marketing consultancy where I currently act as chief operating officer.

Late in 2008, Penguin Publishing Company contracted me to write The Complete Idiot's Guide to Business Success In Your 20's an 30's. I enjoyed this project very much, and look forward to writing more books in the future.

In my spare time, I enjoy speaking at conferences and universities on topics affecting young professionals today.
