1. Where were you born and raised; current city; family; hobbies; past business highlights...
​I was born in Romulus, Michigan. I now live in Dallas, Georgia with my husband, three kids, and my mother. One of my favorite things to do is couponing. I absolutely love saving money on travel and with coupons. I'm not extreme but pretty close lol. This is my very first time trying network marketing and I fell in love with it. My past jobs have always been in retail management, but because of this business I will never have to go back to retail again.

2. How have you grown or personally developed since joining PlanNet?
Since joining PlanNet Marketing, I have finally found something I truly enjoy. I love helping and watching my team build their own business. This business has brought something out in me that I didn't know I had. I have grown in so many ways because of PlanNet. I get a huge amount of joy from seeing how this business has changed my family life, which has given me the boost that I need to keep pushing and growing my business, knowing that me taking the steps to invest in this wonderful vehicle has brought us all closer together.

3. What drives you; what motivates you?
Well of course my children are my biggest motivation for me. To see the smiles on their faces is everything to me. Taking trips and seeing the world with them is so amazing. I can't explain the major change it has brought to my family. Not having to request time off to spend time with my babies means the world to me. I'm glad that I don't have to wait until retirement before I can travel the world. Having a legacy was the main thing that was driving me at the beginning of this journey. Now the main thing that is motivating me is retiring my husband’s income. I want him to have the same time freedom that I have, without having to request time off to travel the world.

4. Who would you consider a role model and why?
Well, it’s kind of hard to pick one role model because so many people have touched my life in so many ways. I have learned so much from a lot of people. But in this business, I would definitely say my sponsor, Takasha Taylor, has truly been a role model for me. She is an absolute beast in her business. Along with running her nail salon, she's a mom supporting her kids in all of their after school sports, all while still pouring into her PlanNet team. She is always there for me and the team no matter what time it is. Her constant grind is truly inspiring to me. Even when I'm having my low days, she always gives me words to help me snap back. I am confident in knowing as long as I'm following her I will continue to be successful!!

5. The three words that describe you best are:
Selfless, Patient, Compassionate.

6. If you had some sound advice to give to anyone what would it be?
I would say keep pushing!! Keep running to your next promotion! Run like your family’s life depends on you getting to the next level. Don't let anyone or anything stop you from getting there. Tell yourself every morning that you have already accomplished that goal, whatever it may be.

7. What does your life look like five years from now?
I would most definitely be a millionaire because of this business. I will have the Sapphire, Ruby, Diamond and Double Diamond rings, along with the Rolex watch and anything else Mr. Bradley adds on within the five years! My husband and I will be traveling the world on our private jet, helping more families get started and building their business and becoming financially free. All of my kids will be financially set.
