♟️Business is war. We just make sure you're armed to win it.

I build remote outbound teams for Advisors and Founders so you can focus on closing deals and staying ten steps ahead, while my team handles the grunt work , smashing phones, chasing leads, and flooding your calendar.

Here’s what working with us looks like in your first 30 days:

1. We set up your outbound automation stack from scratch — dialer, email, LinkedIn & CRM synced.
2. You get warm leads, not just cold outreach — we focus on intent signals and timing.
3. Expect 15–25 qualified appointments on your calendar within your first month.

The problems our clients usually face:

**Inconsistent lead flow or relying too much on referrals

**Wasting time with cold leads or no-shows

**No system in place for outbound appointment setting

We fix all of that through our 3-part system:

SPEED System – Your full tech stack built to scale
Remote Setter Team – Trained appointment setters who live in the trenches
QA & RevOps – Our backend tracks quality, performance, and optimization

If you're an Advisor or Founder ready to scale your sales pipeline with predictable appointments, use the 'Book Appointment' link in my profile.


Or DM me the word "Setters" and we’ll take it from there.

I thrive on the "𝐟𝐢𝐠𝐮𝐫𝐞-𝐢𝐭-𝐨𝐮𝐭-𝐧𝐨-𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫-𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭" mentality, firmly believing that I will conquer any challenge that comes my way. People often describe me as 𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐧𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐜, 𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐞, and I was even dubbed "The Bad Girl of LinkedIn." My social butterfly nature complements my 𝐮𝐧𝐰𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐬 on achieving results, as I effortlessly 𝐧𝐞𝐭𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐳𝐞 to create opportunities anywhere I go.

My professional journey has been diverse, spanning hospitality, operations, construction, sales, and now recruiting.

I have successfully managed teams of 100+ individuals, closed deals worth up to $1.2 million, and even had the privilege of serving as Mr. Marriott's personal server.

While my professional life is thriving, my 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐝 𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐞 is being a mom to my energetic 6-year-old, Axel. Balancing the demands of work and family brings joy and fulfillment. In my downtime, I love to hit the range 🏌️‍♀️, snuggle my two dogs, and even make it to the beach for sunrise occasionally.

My guiding motto is simple yet powerful: "𝑰𝒇 𝑰 𝑪𝒂𝒏'𝒕, 𝑴𝒚 𝑵𝒆𝒕𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒌 𝑪𝒂𝒏." I believe in teamwork and collaboration. By working together and using the strengths of our network, we can accomplish remarkable things. Building 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐟𝐮𝐥 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 is important to me, and I'm dedicated to making a 𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭 on the lives of those I work with.
