Biography

I am a marketing and sales professional with a passion for public relations.  I have spent over 17 years in the corporate world working in a very wide variety of industries.  I currently serve as the National Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Colors on Parade, an automotive paint and dent company.  In addition, I own a small consulting agency called New Life Communications. I serve as a Board Advisor to the Women in Automotive organization and the South Carolina PANS Research Initiative.  I am very involved in my community of North Myrtle Beach, where I enjoy coaching youth soccer. I am married to a full-time National Guard Soldier, and I have three sons and a daughter.  We live in Cherry Grove Beach and spend most of our time enjoying the ocean or watching soccer games.  We have two dogs and a really mean cat named Spit.
