After 19 amazing years, Nov. 10, 2021 marked my final day as a Ducks Unlimited employee. ๐ฆ
The decision to leave the organization I love so dearly was painful and difficult, but it was also necessary. I will miss so many wonderful people who have impacted my life, but none more than my team.

To my team: I will forever be grateful for your hard work, dedication and support over the years. Iโll always have your back. Thanks for always having mine. ๐
Ok, that was the hard part to write.

Iโm entering the next chapter of my career with a newfound sense of purposeโฆ
Iโm starting my own consulting business. My mission:

Iโm going to teach them โ and their teams – how to create content that will establish thought leadership, build trust among supporters and generate more donors for their organization.
There are hundreds or thousands of people reading this post who donโt yet understand the importance of a personal brand.
Theyโre using LinkedIn without a strategy. ๐ค
They donโt realize the massive potential it offers to their company or the future of their own career.

In the coming months, Iโll share more tips that you can use to build a brand and get the most out of this platform. Iโll also share my journey into the world of entrepreneurship and the lessons learned along the way.
And yes, youโll continue to see random videos from my deer stand and TikTok clips of my kids doing goofy things because thatโs just what I do. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
So, thatโs my next move.
Iโm excited.
Iโm terrified.
I have trouble spelling “entrepreneur”.
BUTโฆ.
