I’ve always dreamed of owning my own business. My inspiration began as a young girl working for two women who ran a successful company from their basement office, eventually growing to over 100 employees. While I didn’t love the job, I loved watching those ladies dress up in expensive suits and high heels, attend important meetings and create a culture of hard work and friendships. At least, that’s what was important and impressive to me at 19 years old.

I recently attended a Women in Leadership networking and educational event at Riveredge Hospital in Forest Park. It was a nice change of pace for me, as most IT events I join tend to be male dominated.
