What I like best about what I do is: Seeing how the receipt and output of funds make a difference in our community. When I see the funds come in from individuals and workplace campaigns, I am grateful to those who are helping others. When I see where the funds go and how our partner agencies help improve lives, I feel a great sense of accomplishment that I am also part of the solution. I am a United Way Old Hickory Leadership donor, so I not only talk the talk, I walk the walk.
My greatest successes have been: Recovering from breast cancer. Even though I had a double mastectomy in 2018, I was only out of work for a couple of weeks. I had such wonderful support and prayers from my colleagues that I really couldn’t do anything but recover!

Who or what inspired you to pursue your current career?
I love the Mississippi Gulf Coast and have always felt I was suited best for a career in the hospitality industry.
I was given the opportunity to buy Biloxi Beach Resort Rentals from my former employer, and I will always be grateful for his guidance and mentorship along the way.
What I like best about what I do is:
I look forward to going to work every morning. I wake up excited to see what the day has in store for me and my team. Sharing our love for the Mississippi Gulf Coast with tourists and those relocating to the area never gets old, and we are grateful for the opportunity to do so through our condo rental agency.
My greatest successes have been:
Family is everything to me. Finding a balance between home and work life is tough, but it is so rewarding to lead by example and know that my daughter is learning the importance of work and family life balance, as well.
