My Story
My experience is diverse. Through all my roles, I've realized that success hinges on the ability to invest in both the things and the people that most influence your life.
Since my teen years, I've held roles in leadership as Arizona's Junior Miss of 1997, captain of sports teams, currently as manager and owner of multiple businesses and through many other church and community leadership roles. My most substantial qualifier, however, may be motherhood.
I am passionate about potential. I shine the light on that potential by focusing on the principles that take a person from the bench to the starting lineup.
As the only daughter of a prominent player for the National Football League, Dallas Cowboys quarterback, Danny White, the affiliation with "America's Team" left me well-schooled in presentation and composure under scrutiny. I also learned to hold my own with three brothers who did their best to rough my edges. Read about it in our book!
If you have a group that needs motivation on leadership development or teamwork, my presentations are designed to inspire your audience members to become starters.
One last thing. I'm passionate about faith-based coaching and offer occasional pro-bono events. If you have a gathering under this niche, I'd love to speak to your group about how faith is the foundation for starting!
