Real experience. Real understanding. Real change.

I didn't grow up with financial clarity. In fact, some of my earliest memories around money are pretty simple and pretty telling. I remember eating hot dog sandwiches and not thinking much of it at the time… but looking back, I understand what it meant. Money was tight. There wasn't a plan. We just did the best we could with what we had. And for a long time, that's how I approached money too, figuring it out as I went, learning through trial and error.

My

Journey

I've spent over 50 years in accounting, but my real education didn't just come from numbers; it came from life.

I've seen what happens when there's no clear system. I've experienced the stress, the uncertainty, and the feeling of never quite being in control, not just professionally, but personally.

In 2014, my life changed overnight when my mother suffered a stroke. I became her primary caregiver, and suddenly faced over $122,000 in my own debt, plus $89,000 in her credit card debt. We were overwhelmed, scared, and unsure how to move forward.

That's when I discovered Financial Peace University. What began as a desperate search for solutions became a life-transforming journey. With faith and determination, I applied every principle step by step. It wasn't easy, but it worked. Slowly, we dug ourselves out from under $211,000 in combined debt, and I found something I hadn't expected: peace.

That experience gave me a mission I hadn't planned on: helping other women find that same clarity and confidence, without judgment, and without pretending it's simple.

Why I

Became a Coach

For years, I shared what I learned with friends, family, and anyone who asked. Eventually, I answered the call and became a Ramsey Solutions Master Financial Coach, turning what started as personal survival into a practical, structured approach I could offer to others.

Over time, I developed a simple, practical framework for managing money, one that isn't overwhelming or restrictive, but actually works in real life. Today, I use that experience and training to help others find the clarity and confidence I wish I'd had sooner.

I work primarily with women in mid-career who earn well but feel stuck, widows and caregivers suddenly managing finances alone, and women who are simply ready to take control and build lasting financial confidence.

A Little More About Me

At the end of the day, this work is personal.

I care deeply about helping people feel less stressed and more confident in their everyday lives, because money touches so much of it.

Family, values, and doing what’s right matter to me. And I bring that same care and honesty into every session, every conversation, and every plan we create together.

Because this isn’t just about finances. It’s about giving you peace of mind and a path forward.
