Life & Career Milestones
My path in life has been direct
1.
After earning my bachelor’s degree in speech communication and promotional marketing, I began my career in marketing.
2.
Witnessing a young boy's needs during a shoe distribution event sparked my passion for addressing basic necessities for underserved kids.
3.
My husband and I founded Goodie Two Shoes with a vision to empower kids by providing them the choice of brand-new shoes—an experience my husband, who grew up differently than me, never had.
4.
After moving to Las Vegas, Nevada, we planned our first shoe distribution event for one day—it has since grown into a 21-year legacy.
5.
As the foundation grew, we expanded from a single event to a mobile unit, reaching more schools and making a broader impact year-round.
