I've always been captivated by the journey people take to discover their life's true calling. While we often hear about the famous founders and trailblazers, there are countless others who toil away each day, quietly pursuing their dreams. They build, they grow, they stumble and pick themselves up, all without the spotlight of fame, finding immense joy in the simple act of getting things done.

I found my life's purpose at the age of 40. Now, I'm determined to spend the next forty+ years on a journey of building, growing, failing, and learning, surrounded by a diverse group of rebels who share my passion. Together, we aim to push boundaries and contribute to making the world a better and more fascinating place.

I’m an AI Lawyer. No I’m an AI Lawyer. No I’m…

Linklaters launched a cohort of lawyers that are “AI Native.” I’m sure we will see hundreds more firms designate their lawyers as AI Superheros. 

Be skeptical. We are still early days and while I applaud firms trying to transform, much of what we see right now is AI marketing theater. 
Lots of talk, some use of AI platforms, not much actual transformation. 

AI isn’t like other software. It requires a fundamental step change in how you approach its use and for a firm, how it benefits the user and customer. You need to be creative and think outside the standard precedent. 

So I’m personally watching for how firms leverage actual practical use cases. 
Not just the marketing clickbait.

Skunks works usually means advanced R&D but I started Thanksgiving week with a friendly visit from Pepé Le Pew! 🦨 

In my part of the world, here in the Midwest, USA, you get skunks. We have a couple that roam our neighborhood. 

If you have a dog, like we do, you know that at some point you are probably going to deal with a skunk spraying your dog unless you are very careful or very lucky. Well, my luck ran out 🤦🏽‍♂️

This guy decided to lose a fight with the worst smell and then bring it into my house! 

Luckily he is safe, most of the smell has now been removed from dog, humans and house. So I guess, on the positive side, I now have another story to tell 😝

Happy Turkey week for those that celebrate 🍗

P.S. props to Jillian Richardson 👋 for reminding me that always being professional is boring.

Websites often cause frustration for small and medium-sized business owners. They don’t execute a plan and structure to produce a website that works and attracts the RIGHT clientele to the business.
I create a highly functional website that speaks to your uniqueness and stands out in your market and walks you through all the steps involved in crafting or maintaining a website.  

Your Website is the first place potential customers learn about you, so it's vital that it is designed to put your best face forward. Your Website is also a functional tool to capture vital data about prospects, distribute electronic communications, and quickly customize the messages you want visitors to see.

I work with you throughout the process to make sure you’re happy when your site goes live. We start by discussing the basics and go through a comprehensive questionnaire. Based on your needs and wishes, I’ll provide an initial design for your review. 

After the design is settled, the content and behind-the-scenes technology are put into place. Finally, it all comes together in a launched and live website. At each phase, I will guide you through the steps and answer your questions. We work with you from start to finish to ensure you are satisfied with the end result.

The benefits of working with me:

Right-sized website design
	•	No more or less than your needs and wishes
	•	Fill out our questionnaire to help us help you
 
Custom design
	•	As unique as your business
	•	You approve after initial review. No surprises.
 
Performance
	•	Once the design is approved we add the technology muscle
	•	Big results in SEO
	•	Essential prospect data to turn leads to sales
Ease of use
	•	Clean intuitive navigation for your customers
	•	Simple for you to update marketing messages

Support – Consider us your tugboat:
	•	we break the ice,
	•	pull your business through on your path,
	•	and won’t leave you in the dark.

Podcast Guest/Panelist

Women to Women Self-Defense, LLC

As I was reaching the level of black belt, I increasingly got questions from other women business owners about what to do in certain attack situations. After doing some research, it becomes very obvious to me that there are few options for women to learn from other women. Women to Women Self-Defense is born! I teach women how to stay empowered, understand predators and teach moves to get out of dangerous situations.

Owner

RB Publishing

While working as the art director, I turned around the quality and design of the magazines published by RB which resulted in more ad sales. I also helped them design and created 3 brand-new publications which doubled the size of the company.

Graphic Designer

AB Publications

As the assistant to the art director, I designed advertising, organized magazine content, and worked on graphics and photos for magazines.

My idea of paradise expands beyond my backyard and to the shore of Lake Wisconsin. The most compelling creative ideas and designs burst into my workspace near my favorite bodies of water which propelled the launch of Waterfront Graphic Design.

I make businesses look beautiful online, but it's more than just that. It's more about getting the message right. My main goal is to help you find your ideal clientele and from there, we work on your branding message brand to attract that clientele to you. I am a website problem solver and investigator and help people get to the root of the problem. 

The endless flow of inventive ideas and my dedication to client satisfaction has allowed me to build a loyal client database and I couldn’t be more thankful! My clients stick with me because they see improvement in their Google rankings, I respond quickly and I am easy to work with.

Some of my favorite projects include:
✅ Website Design
✅ Website Maintenance
✅ Search Engine Optimization
✅ Logos
✅ Video Editing for Social
✅ Brochure Design
✅ Poster Design
✅ Banner Design
✅ Business Cards
✅ ...and more!

When I’m not designing logos, websites, or brochures, you can find me volunteering in our amazing, southern Wisconsin community! I’m a firm believer that when we give intentionally to make the world a better place, we are making ourselves healthier and better humans. Because of this, I continuously look to work with charitable organizations and nonprofits in their design efforts and giving back, fills my cup!

In addition to many community initiatives and love of the soothing sounds of nature, I encourage and empower women to take control of their presence by teaching self-defense courses. As a martial arts enthusiast, I take everything I have learned in my years studying various martial arts techniques to offer solutions to any woman at any age can master!

One of my favorite past times is making new connections within my community and I cannot wait to meet you! 

☕ Reach out to me for a virtual coffee or tea, I can’t wait to hear your story.
