About My Approach
Because traditional approaches and systems don’t seem to work for my niche audience of highly active, creative thinkers, my real role is to help you find your own answers and identify what works for you. Through consulting, coaching, seminars and writing, I use an interactive educational approach to help you move ahead and reach your goals. One of my greatest strengths is understanding what you'd like to achieve and simplifying it into an easy-to-do plan.
Award Winning Inventor
The first product I licensed is the Pilesmart Organizer tray, winner of the "Organizer's Choice Award for Best Business Product," at the 2007 annual conference for the National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO). As an inventor, I have been asked by manufacturers to develop products on their behalf and to provided feedback on their current and future product lines. Additionally, I have turned around 15 ideas in a 34 hour timeframe and 17 more within a two week period to show face-to-face with manufacturers. Currently, I have several product of my own that I will be pitching for licensing in addition to helping my client's with their process of bringing their products to market.
InventRight Graduate
As the very first InventRight student, I know the InventRight process extremely well and teach and coach others on the licensing process. Stephen Key has been my mentor since the beginning and he frequently shares his wisdom with me on how to succeed in product development, marketing and business. At the same time, I have the honor of being Stephen's coach and advisor. Working with him has provided me with a phenomenal education!
