About the Author

Born amidst the breathtaking landscapes of New Zealand and then landing in the United States at the pivotal age of 13, my journey has been as varied and vibrant as the two hemispheres I call home. As one of seven siblings (yes, we had a full house with 3 brothers and 3 sisters!), I can confidently say that navigating large families prepared me for juggling the many hats I proudly wear today.

Proud Virgo (and trust me, the organized, analytical, and meticulous traits are all there!), I ventured into the academic world and earned my undergraduate degree in Decision Sciences and Management Information Systems. Still not satisfied (classic Virgo trait, always striving for more), I pursued a master's in Counseling and Development. This led to a fulfilling 15-year stint as a school counselor. And if you think the halls of schools are challenging, I invite you to step into the whirlwind that was education during the pandemic.

As the CEO of my own company and leader of a dynamic real estate team, my life is constantly on the move. But the most treasured titles I hold? Mother of four incredible humans – three charming sons and one dazzling daughter. Each day, they remind me why I love the chaos, why humor is a survival tool, and why every challenge is an opportunity in disguise.

I've always harbored dreams of authoring a book. Maybe it's the Virgo in me, always desiring to share, analyze, and connect. Or perhaps it's the stories I've accumulated along the way, from the beaches of New Zealand to the school hallways of America. Whatever the reason, I'm excited to share my world with you.

So, buckle up for a mix of ambition, relentless Virgo energy, laughter, life lessons, and the undying passion of a mother, entrepreneur, and lifelong learner.
