Pricing, Profit & Closing Strategist
After years of successfully navigating the wedding and special event industry, as well as the retail and hospitality world, I am here to help you! Yes, YOU...The business owner who is hustling 9-5 and grinding it out late night. I know what it takes and I understand how to elevate your business through story, show value to your clients with strategic pricing and ultimately help you make more money by closing sales faster & with more confidence.
How did I get here? I put in the work. I learned from every fall as I got back up with focus and determination to do it better the next time. I decided to change my pricing strategy, client experience and reframe what I was getting paid for...my creativity. Now it's my goal to change the lives of other creatives that are stuck doing it "the old way" or "the way it's always been." It's time for a new and radical way of thinking.
I am a business driven, creative AF entrepreneur that wants to help you dream bigger & think outside the box while getting PAID for your creative talent, not just the product you deliver. Is this you?
Are you BOLD enough to Level UP?
If so.... LFG!!
