i'm haley!

goodness gracious,
it's nice to meet you!

Beyond business, I try to live intentionally, focusing on God's purpose for me, and trying to be patient wife & mama - I'm a bit everywhere! I love being an amateur at-home barista, and I'm border line obsessed with golden retrievers. My husband and I live in rural Southern Illinois with our kids Beckham and Amelia. We have one daughter in Heaven, Lucy. 

You can typically find me busting out my cheesy dance moves, attempting to get a laugh out of my kiddo, or planning our next adventure.

Hey there, I'm Haley, and I'm so excited to share bits and pieces of my daily life, businesses, and faith with you. From an early age, I have been a go-getter, self motivated, and competitive. I've had the blessing of working in a variety of different business including: healthcare, retail, travel, personal branding, corporate, education, and little bit of everything in between.

My favorite parts of business - the creative strategy - is often a weak link to so many, and that's why I've created this space. I've heard and seen first hand issues that are losing customers and stopping businesses from growing. Now, I'm excited to share my experience with you!
