1. Where were you born and raised; current city; family; hobbies; past business highlights...
I was born in Malvern, AR, home of Scottie Pippen. Raised nearby in Arkadelphia, AR, I lived in California for about 30 years before moving back to my birth state in North Little Rock, AR. I enjoy traveling, of course! I also enjoy fishing, learning new things, dancing, and listening to music of almost any kind. I am a member of the 20/20 Club, a Gold Plus member and a March Madness winner. I have reached the level of One-Star Director in just over two years and am racing toward Two-Star Director! This business allows me to make my mortgage payment on my new home!

2. How have you grown or personally developed since joining PlanNet?
Oh yes indeed! A change of attitude and mindset! You can't blame anyone for your lack of success in YOUR business. If you don't develop yourself personally and grow in emotional and business intelligence, don't plan on having success in your business.

3. What drives you; what motivates you?
I have always been a driven person, thinking that you should always be elevating yourself. I think drive is an innate trait inside me so that always keeps me motivated about whatever I am pursuing. When you reach a goal, don't settle for staying there! The biggest things that motivate me are my family and helping people. Those reasons are why I can never give up and never QUIT!

4. Who would you consider a role model and why?
My late aunt, Ruby Peters, inspired me at four years old to become a nurse! I watched her focus and hard work to finish school to provide a good life for my cousins as a single mom much of the time. She was my nurse when I needed immunizations to start kindergarten. I never forgot that…I am a retired Registered Nurse!

5. The three words that describe you best are:
Caring, Driven, Passionate.

6. If you had some sound advice to give to anyone what would it be?
Work on you! The key to success in this business is how well you can personally develop. Show up for everything you can, read, take notes, be coachable, and success will come!

7. What does your life look like five years from now?
I will be debt-free. I will be able to keep my family secure and safe! I see myself at Six-Star, on my way to Seven-Star, earning a seven-figure income. I will have helped many, many families achieve financial freedom. I will own that vacation home in the Caribbean because of the financial security provided by this business.
