Meet the Founder
In 2013, I cried on the bathroom floor when no one showed up to the launch party of my first business.
That devastation was the catalyst to me becoming the founder, advocate of women-owned businesses, and public speaker I am today. I know what it's like to have the odds against you and still push forward. HerHeadquarters Woman-owned Business Certification is about being an ally to the millions of women entrepreneurs who also have the odds against them.
As the founder of HerHeadquarters, a platform giving women-owned businesses access to their dream projects, collaborators, and community, I get to lead our impact. From proposing initiatives to Congress that impact women entrepreneurs, to offering business grants, hosting workshops, & now, the Woman-owned Business Certification. I promise, this is just the beginning of how we'll serve women-owned businesses on a global scale.
