About 

You can tell Diane that your team makes avoidable mistakes. Or even that your business stops making sense to you sometimes. She’ll see the through-line, explain the why, and partner with your second-in-command to fix it. 


A master second-in-command (with a minor in being a visionary herself*) Diane can see an entrepreneur’s vision, and the path to get there. Her 25 years of hands-on experience puts your company’s challenges into context and often lets you shortcut to the solution.

 

*Just kidding, her master’s is in Management/Management Information Systems and she’s PMP® certified.
