I worked in corporate America for many years and have extensive experience working with technology. I was a management consultant for several consulting firms including Accenture. I am the immediate past President of the Chicago Chapter of Women in Technology International (WITI) an organization that has 55 chapters worldwide. As such my board consisted of volunteers. This helped me to hone my leadership skills and I found that I really love helping women. One day I decided to stop interacting with my computer monitor and work more with people face to face. I made a career change to professional speaker. Then I wrote a book called "Self-Creation: 10 Powerful Principles for Changing Your Life." The book chronicled how I was able to transition in 9 different careers. I started as a fashion model, then was a rock and roll singer (for 10 years + was on the MCA label and my band shared the stage with the Beach Boys), then technologist, writer, professional speaker, entrepreneur, mother, wife, & women's advocate. I founded JAD Communications to help women on their Journey to Achievement of their Destiny and the company has been my focus for the last 6 years. I also founded Ball of Gold Corporation www.ballofgold.com a company that focuses on Knowledge Management, Project and Program Management. We sell Project Management templates from that website. My passion for helping women to achieve their dreams has me speaking to thousands of women all over the United States and providing training for corporate clients. This helps to not only increase my knowledge of what women seek but to share my knowledge and my network as well. My website www.jadcommunications.com has more information about me and my work.
