Bio
As a resilience and well-being advisor and fraud prevention expert, I am passionate about helping organizations become more Humane, Ethical, and Resilient. I enable individuals to thrive and live joyfully by learning to use the building blocks of resilience and by discovering and developing their personal character strengths.
At MAPP, I have acquired and have access to the tools of individual and organizational well-being and thriving. I am a great organizer, and love bringing diverse groups and individuals together to synergistically create a better whole.
My most significant professional accomplishments were the creation of “The Resilient Organization: Beyond Surviving the Thriving” webinar to help organizations and individuals better cope with the challenges ensuing from the Covid 19 pandemic, and being the primary Editor of Frank Abagnale’s Fraud Bulletin, used by the FBI and the Federal Reserve, for over 10 years.
My most significant academic accomplishments were helping to create the “Developing Civility and Connection” community enrichment program for the city of Midland, Michigan, and writing a 100+ page Capstone researching the significant overlap between religion/spirituality and positive psychology/well-being, including their connections with my own faith tradition.
My most significant personal accomplishments were raising three amazing daughters, serving as the Music Director for over 11 LDS congregations in the La Crescenta Valley, and organizing a multi-congregational Community Christmas Concert and Crèche Festival with local Mormon, Lutheran, and Catholic congregations which was attended by over 1400 people.
