About Me
My passion is to help middle-class Americans live simply, richly, and wisely without the burden of debt and the stress of living paycheck-to-paycheck, all while creating generational wealth.
Credentials
I am an NFEC Certified Financial Education Instructor and Certified Life Coach. I obtained a BA in Psychology from Elon University, and an MBA in Human Resource Management from Northcentral University. I have been in the Human Resources industry since 2006, and have been teaching financial literacy since 2008.
Experience
Known as the Abundant Life Strategist, over the last 15 years, I have been involved in presenting financial education programming and one-on-one coaching. I have given presentations on personal finance and wealth building strategies to churches, small groups, women’s conferences, and colleges in my local community of Richmond Va. I have helped well over 100 women and families to learn basic budgeting skills, to pay off debt early, to save, invest, and to give generously. The very principles that I live by on a daily basis.
Personal Success Story
Like most, I was conditioned go to college, get a degree, and obtain a good job so that she could live the proverbial American dream. While that sounded good in theory, my first few years out of college were a financial nightmare…I struggled with debt, debt collectors, overdraft fees, and trying to keep up with the Joneses, all while making less than $25k a year. One day, I finally got sick and tired of living in chaos and anxiety, and started my journey to financial freedom. To date, I have purchased my first home, paid off 2 cars, paid off both undergraduate and graduate student loans, travelled internationally debt free, given generously, and amassed a multiple six-figure net worth while working a full-time job earning less than six-figures, and I am committed to teaching others how to accomplish the same.
