My Story...

"I worked in the technology industry for 20 years (10 years as a Consultant, Pre and Post Sales Engineer, Corporate Trainer and Telephone Technical Support. The other 10 years was spent selling software and professional services).  After the incidents of 9/11 (I was in Tower Two, 
2 weeks before the attack performing a sales presentation) I decided to start my own business as a Sales and Computer Consultant.  Within 2 years my parents started becoming sick first my father then my mother.  As an only child I had to take care of them, all their affairs and their house.  I did that for 15 years until they passed on.  In the process I lost everything and I am starting over again at 60.  I'm doing it and you can do it too."

How I Work with My Clients...

 

"I believe it's extremely important to help clients transform from where they are now to where they want to go, to reach and even exceed their professional and personal goals with proven, easy to duplicate, results oriented methods, processes and techniques so they can be successful time and time again!" 

 



  • My goal is to help transform people from who they are now to who they want to become in their professional and personal lives. 
     
  • Empowering clients with the use of proven, results oriented tools, methods and techniques with the ultimate goal of ‘teaching clients to fish’ on their own.  
     
  • Everyone has the ability to reach their full potential if they are willing 'learn, practice and master' the skills necessary to become successful.  
     
  • There are no limits only the ones we set in our minds.
