A Bit About Me:
I bring more than 20 years of experience in marketing, public relations, sales, accounting, and business operations. I previously owned a marketing consulting business where I helped clients with branding, marketing strategy, graphic design, and advertising for both digital and traditional media. I also owned a bookkeeping business for 10 years, working with companies in many industries to set up and manage financial systems.
My education includes Fashion Merchandising, Advertising and Public Relations, and Business Management with a focus on marketing. I was formerly a Certified Professional Bookkeeper in Canada and a Certified QuickBooks advisor for both Online and Desktop versions.
I continue to stay current and expand my knowledge in artificial intelligence, branding, digital marketing, and graphic design so I can bring the most up-to-date ideas to the entrepreneurs I mentor.
