About Me
Hello, Everyone - it's great to see you again! Some of you will remember me from Pleasant View Orchard and Bakery. In 2022 life events spun me into a new direction, and I created my own consulting "one-woman show" to help small businesses "grow and glow". I've always been passionate about business development and continuous improvement; I consider myself a "Mary Poppins-esque Problem-Solver with a head for operations and a heart for people". Now I get to employ my talents for a variety of industries and in a variety of ways, including (but not limited to) managing social media accounts, planning events, collaborating with teams to refine processes, and facilitating new connections with people and businesses. I grew up on a family dairy farm in Northeast Wisconsin, obtained a B.A. in Business Administration from UW-Stevens Point, and have amassed 20+ years of experience in various areas of business such as customer relations, accounting, sales, and marketing. My husband, Andy, and I operate the small, simple and stewardship-filled "Paradise City Farm" outside Niagara, Wisconsin, where we have Oberhasli dairy goats, pasture-raised pigs, free-range laying hens, and meat birds. I'm a homeschooling mom and softball chauffeur to Leah (age 13), and stepmom to Bergen, Lena and Klara in Missouri (ages 19, 17, 15).
