She explored various opportunities, including real estate, digital marketing, advertising, franchises, and retail, before discovering Home Helpers.

She discovered an affinity for working with seniors, leading her to various roles, including five years at a local hospice and managing a healthcare staffing company in Baltimore. In this role, she negotiated staffing contracts with hospitals across the U.S. and facilitated international recruitment of allied health professionals. Upon returning to West Virginia, she transitioned to digital marketing and advertising, becoming an expert in search engine marketing and optimization and assisting over 400 local business owners. During this time, she earned an Associate’s Degree in Business Administration. Eventually, seeking a more impactful venture, she found Home Helpers.
