I want you to live your best life.
You don’t have to choose between a thriving business and a fulfilling personal life—you can have both. I believe in building a brand that works for your life, not the other way around. That means finding balance, prioritizing what matters, and surrounding yourself with the right people and opportunities. Through my journey, I’ve learned that success isn’t just about hustle; it’s about alignment, connection, and sustainable growth.
My story is simple
Entrepreneurship, Motherhood, and Meaningful Connections—Without the Overwhelm.
What started as a small hobby—blogging about my experiences as a new mom—turned into something much bigger than I ever imagined.
After my oldest was born, I created a space to share my journey, never expecting it to evolve into a full-fledged business. But between that time and the birth of my daughter, I took a leap of faith. I left my full-time job to build something of my own—without a roadmap, but with a deep belief that I was meant to work for myself and make meaningful connections in my community.
Since publishing my very first blog post, my journey has taken me in many directions. I grew Des Moines Parent into the leading resource for families in Des Moines. I’ve planned and hosted events that bring our community together. I’ve helped women in business find confidence and support through my role as President of FemCity Des Moines. And most recently, I became a published author, sharing my love for the community I live in.
But here’s the truth: None of this happened overnight. It took failures, self-teaching, networking, and a whole lot of trial and error. And through it all, I discovered my biggest passions—supporting businesses and organizations, connecting with families, and empowering women.
Now, I’m here to help others do the same—build businesses, create connections, and design lives that feel aligned and fulfilling. If you’re looking for inspiration, guidance, and community, you’re in the right place.
