About Me

Thank you for dropping by...

I was born and raise in Blaine, MN, a Northwest suburb of Mpls. I was blessed with a rather large, loving family of 3 sisters and 3 brothers...I was the 4th born so I am the middle child. It was quite an experience growing up in my family.

I was first introduced to the concept of MLM at a very young age (40 years ago). When my father became disabled, my mom became the 'bread-winner' and was able to raised us with her MLM company.

My life, however, took a different path...down the medical field, Sleep Disorder Medicine, which I have been involved with since 1985 (when I became nationally registered) and continues to be a passion of mine. Sleep Apnea is one of the most common sleep disorders that's affecting people today...so it's fun educating both the community at large and physicians as to the importance of screening their patients for this common, yet in some cases, deadly disorder...which can be diagnosed and treated very easily, increasing the quality of life for their patients.

I've since had 2 wonderful children (my daughter is now 29 and my son is 31) and they've blessed me with 5 fantastic grand children (ages 10-15). Every positive thing you've ever heard about being a grand parent is ALL TRUE...they are such a blessing, not to mention fun.

Although I'm originally from MN, I relocated to IL, in 2001, for a sales position with a major Sleep Diagnostics company where I covered 9 states and 2 provinces, what an adventurous opportunity! 

Lee and I met (through Match.com) in 2006, we now live in the village of Lily Lake...Lee has 2 daughters in college (19 & 20) and his son Ryan is a very talented 16 year old, who decided to come live with us full time a year ago for a more serene atmosphere. Ryan is a true gift...he values 'calm', balance, health, martial arts, his guitar, drinking his tea, his Isagenix nutritional shakes (after losing over 40 lbs on the Isagenix cleansing/nutritional program, incredible feeling of wellness, we decided to make this part of our daily health 'assurance'). It's been wonderful for all of us.

Some of my interests and loves are God and spirituality, spending time with family and friends, building relationships, Personal Development, Business Development, sharing, walking and living a healthy lifestyle and helping others. I love animals, horses and dogs are probably my favorites...we have 1 dog, Nikki (I adopted Nikki from Midwest Rescue 5 years ago. She's a beautiful black and white American Stratfordshire Terrier, which is commonly known as a 'pitbull', and she's by far the best and funniest dog I've ever been blessed with). I love life and all it has to offer...I'm fairly crafty and creative, I enjoy the movies, music, and discovering new places and things and I absolutely love technology...a true gadget gal. I love giving back...Lee and I are volunteer 'Wish Granters' for Make-A-Wish of IL, which is very rewarding and we both love American Idol...so many talented people. We both love just about anything outdoors...of course Spring, Summer & Fall are our favorite seasons. Oh yeah...we are currently taking dance lessons, which is a hoot! We're lovin' it! All in all...I wake up each day with an attitude of gratitude...Thankful to be alive and healthy...I work at being the best I can be in any situation... :-)

With our continuing economy shift, I decided to follow in my mother's footsteps...only on a much larger scale, now that we have this powerful tool called the internet, and create multiple streams of cashflow...which brings me to the present day. Learning and implementing new, up-to-date information on 'how to' maximize my resources, leverage my time, branding myself and create wealth while helping others is exciting... So, stay tuned...there's more to come...

Success to all of you ...
