I’m not here to impress you with credentials or curated success stories. I don’t have an economics degree, a trust fund, or a team of people making life easier behind the scenes. I don’t have endless time, a stay-at-home partner, or a nanny on speed dial. What I do have is 20+ years of operational strategy forged under real pressure — from leading soldiers in uniform to navigating federal investigations and building airtight systems that keep businesses thriving.

It wasn’t a business coach or a perfect plan that changed my life — it was a moment of clarity after reading We Should All Be Millionaires. I realized no one was coming to save me, so I built my own way out. I started small, taking marketing courses at Cornell, freelancing to stay afloat. But the deeper I went, the clearer it became: most businesses didn’t just need more marketing — they needed operations that actually worked. So I pivoted, mastered the backend, and rebuilt my business from the inside out.

Now, as the founder of The Bread and Butter Company™, I help women-owned, service-based businesses do the same — streamline their systems, reclaim their time, and scale on their own terms. No more proving, pretending, or pushing past burnout. Just power, profit, and peace — built from the ground up.

I didn’t always have the clients, the services, the impact, or the freedom. 

I built this company because I was tired of watching powerful women build empires on broken foundations.

Women who were brilliant — but buried.
Respected — but running on fumes.
Successful — but secretly holding their business together with duct tape and desperation.

I know that woman, because I was her. Women like us don’t have time for chaos, confusion, or cookie-cutter advice. We’re the ones holding it all together — the business, the family, the legacy. But somewhere between serving clients and surviving the daily grind, the systems that were supposed to support us stopped working.

I know what it feels like to rebuild from scratch — to juggle motherhood, military service, and entrepreneurship while everyone around you says, “Just delegate,” like it’s that simple. I learned the hard way that chaos costs — in time, in peace, and in potential.  So I made a promise: that no woman building a legacy for her family would ever have to do it alone again.  That promise became a movement and a model for what happens when women stop operating in survival mode and start running their businesses like the CEOs they actually are.

This company isn’t just
about operations.
