1. Where were you born and raised; current city; family; hobbies; past business highlights...
I was born in Dothan, AL and raised in Clayton, AL. I currently reside in Madison, AL. I have a huge family – five brothers, five sisters, 19 nieces and nephews, and two godsons. My hobbies include playing recreational softball and volleyball, along with traveling every chance I get.
2. How have you grown or personally developed since joining PlanNet?
PlanNet has stretched me beyond anything else I ever accomplished. My undergraduate and graduate education hasn't taught me half of what I have learned in the past four years with this business. In college, you are able to study and take a test based on your own knowledge, but in network marketing, it truly takes leading a team to a common goal. This is an entirely different concept. I have learned more about myself, other people and their personalities, building solid relationships with friends/family/associates/business partners, leadership vs management, and PATIENCE.
3. What drives you; what motivates you?
I have always been the go-to person in my family for some reason. So this business and my success in it is not only for me, but my family. I truly desire to be the evidence that you can come from nothing and still have anything that you want with hard work, dedication, and belief. I love the fact that nothing was given to me; my journey has made me the woman I am today.
4. Who would you consider a role model and why?
My older brother, Fredrick, has always been my role model. As a little girl, I always admired him. He was in the Navy for the majority of my life so I did not grow up with him due to the age difference. However, what I admired most was how he took care of his family. No matter the circumstance or situation, they knew they could rely on him to take care of business. Although I don't have my own children, my family knows they can rely on me in the same way. I will be that pillar for my family.
5. The three words that describe you best are:
Ethical, Resilient, and Reliable.
6. If you had some sound advice to give to anyone what would it be?
1) Go for what you want because you truly deserve whatever your heart’s desires are.
2) And if you mess up, don't quit! Correct your mistake and keep moving. No one is perfect, so don't expect to be. Always aim to be a better person tomorrow than you are today.
3) You do not have to become the product of your circumstances, you can be a product of your decisions…just make the right choice.
7. What does your life look like five years from now?
Five years from now, I will be married with children and earning multiple six figures!
