I'm a wife, mother, big sister, life-long resident of the American Midwest, keen observer of workplace dynamics, psychology geek, perpetual writer, and avid veggie gardener.

Someone once said I was a cultivator of leaders; the moniker sort of "grew" on me. Did I mention I'm a sucker for puns? Through my writing and digital training materials, I help business professionals better lead themselves and others so they can achieve greater career success.

Professionally, I hold a degree in Psychology and have a background in Human Resources and Training &amp; Development. As a corporate trainer-turned writer, I’ve co-authored two books and am a columnist for The Huffington Post and SmartBlog on Leadership.

Let's go plant something and see what blooms...
