Hi! I'll start with "Why the Biz Story Studio?" As an adjunct professor and trainer, I have worked with hundreds of small business owners from all walks of life. And over the years, I kept meeting entrepreneurs that have a great ideas but no action plans. They want to move forward but they don't know HOW. They struggle with where to start, what to focus on, and how to keep moving forward.
I noticed rare it is to find a business owner with a super clear brand and compelling messaging. Messaging that explains how they help their customers and what makes them different, special, and qualified. I kept seeing missed opportunities to create STAND-OUT businesses in a supportive, group environment. So, I created a series of workshops to do just that.
I have been teaching and facilitating for 13+ years and am passionate about cultivating high-energy, hands-on learning environments. for participants to explore their ideas. As an adjunct faculty member at Loyola Marymount University and Portland Community College, I taught business courses that incorporated real-world learning, including comprehensive business plans and small group business projects. I am particularly passionate about social entrepreneurship and values-based businesses.
I'm so excited to bring my teaching experience and the lessons I've learned along the way to these workshops so we create YOUR story-based brand.
​
This workshop is for anyone who wants to increase their confidence, clarify their message, and create a brand identity that helps them attract new clients! Hope to see you there.

XOXO
