Web Designer • Marketing Strategist • Business Coach & Mentor
For more than 35 years, I’ve been helping people, businesses, and organizations turn ideas into something meaningful.
My career began in the technology industry, where I built my experience in sales, marketing, education, operations, leadership, and business development. Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to lead teams, develop successful marketing strategies, create educational programs, work with major technology companies, and earn national recognition for both marketing and business achievement. However, somewhere along the way I realized that what I enjoyed most wasn’t simply building businesses. It was helping people succeed. That passion eventually led me to create SolacePath.
Today, I bring together everything I’ve learned throughout my career—business strategy, marketing, website and graphic design, education, photography, and coaching… to help my clients tell their story, strengthen their business, and move forward with confidence.
More Than a Business
SolacePath has never been about offering one particular service. It was created around a much simpler idea: use what you know to help someone else. Sometimes that means building a website from the ground up. Sometimes it means developing a marketing strategy, creating a new brand, designing an educational program, or helping a business owner figure out what comes next. I especially enjoy working with small businesses and organizations where I can become part of the bigger picture. I want to understand what you do, why you do it, and where you want to go—not simply complete a project and disappear. Many of my client relationships have grown into long-term partnerships, and that is exactly how I like to work.
A Little About Me
Long before SolacePath, creativity was already part of my life. I have been a professional photographer since 1985, and that creative eye continues to influence my work in website design, graphics, branding, and marketing.
Away from work, I’m a wife, a mom, a friend, a traveler, a gardener, and someone who believes very strongly in giving back to the community. Life has taught me that success isn’t measured only by what you accomplish. It is also measured by the difference you make in the lives of other people. That belief is at the heart of SolacePath.
Why “SolacePath”?
Because everyone is on a path. Businesses change. Careers change. Life changes. Sometimes you know exactly where you’re headed, and sometimes you need someone beside you to help you find the next step. My goal is to bring experience, creativity, encouragement, and practical solutions to that journey.
Our mission is simple: We Serve Everyone.
For me, those aren’t just words on a website. They’re how I try to live and how I choose to do business—one person, one business, and one opportunity to make a difference at a time.
