I have been an avid backpacker in the mountains of Utah, Wyoming, and Montana, my entire life and I love the start of an adventure. I feel excitement at the trailhead because I know that I have prepared well for my travels. The experienced backpacker understands that having the right tools, equipment, knowledge of the trail, and motivation to reach the destination, will make the journey a success, despite any challenges that may come.

Having been a franchisee for more than 20 years, I feel like the journey to business ownership is like a backpacking trip. You may be new to business and feel like you lack the knowledge and tools. You may not even know where the “trailhead” is and feel uncertain about how to proceed. But, with the right trail guide, you can move forward with confidence. Part of my passion is the research. I love finding the perfect equipment, the best trails, and even the ideal weather. Research is something I enjoy in all areas of my life, from business to real estate, to planning a family activity.

With my 20 years of successful business ownership and franchise experience in the service/restaurant industry and most recently in the family entertainment industry, I want to help you experience the benefits of business ownership.

My goal is to guide you as you embark on your adventure. I will provide you with tools and resources that can help you make an informed business decision and find a franchise that is suited for you. My knowledge of franchising and business, coupled with a strong work ethic, excellent and timely communication skills, honesty, and dependability, will lead you on your path to success.
