5 Things I’ve Learned:

They say never go into business with a friend, but it’s the best advice I never followed.

Sometimes you put walls up not to keep people out, but to see which friends will tear them down! Thanks to my girlfriends who own each brick.

When working a fundraiser, it’s more about the rewards than the awards.

I don’t take my coffee black, I take it with my Mac (and on the go)!

When it comes to prayers, written notes or spoken words, a simple “thank-you” will do!
