Hello World!

Greetings and welcome to my blog! I started this blog because I love to learn and I love to meet new people.

My long term intention is to post profiles of independent business women. I hope to meet and introduce you to women you might not otherwise have met. Some work for themselves, some work for companies owned by others. Along the way, I’ll share my thoughts about what it means to be an independent business woman. In the meantime, I’ll start with some information about me.

I am an event planner. I create learning environments where adults can strengthen their skills and broaden their personal and professional communities.

I am a full partner in some of the events I produce, that means I work with a subject matter expert to produce a conference or seminar. I also have clients for whom I act as an event manager the work is essentially the same, but I am paid on a contract basis instead of having a financial stake in the event.

Currently, I am working on The High Rankings Search Marketing Seminar and the Granite State Human Resources Conference.

It wasn’t a straight path to get here, but that is for another post.
