What is your secret to success when managing a full roster of clients? My secret is: take extensive notes and make to-do lists every day. Be present to the client - even when you're busy, never disappear or ignore them. Let them know you're working on it and give them an estimated time of completion. Time management is key. Every client has to have their individual dedicated hours/minutes per day as needed. Some clients are not as busy as others and could get lost in the shuffle of the busier client if your day is not planned out properly.
If you could go back, what would you tell yourself at the start of your career? Go for the top immediately! Don't waste time!
You are known around Worxbee for being and energetic team member and and avid dog lover, what is something we don’t know? I love Jamaica! My husband and I go every year. We will live on the beach once we both retire. I have 3 tattoos - one when I was too young to know better, one when I married my best friend - we have matching tattoos, and the last one with my daughter who was afraid to do it alone - so of course I was there for her to hold her hand - we have matching tattoos as well.
Where is your home town? New Orleans! Laissez Les Bon Temps Rouler!
Who do you admire most in the world and why? God and my father. My father was the best person ever...in my eyes. He was a great man inside and out who loved his family and the city of NOLA. He was famous in the city for his community works, the boards he sat on to make New Orleans a place to be proud of, and his accomplishments as a jazz enthusiast and saxophone player. Although he's no longer here with us, my brother and I still look up to him and all that he accomplished. God is admirable and so much more. We wouldn't be here without him. God is love. I'm in love with anything resembling love.
Do you have any hidden talents? I am an awesome private investigator!
