I'm delighted to have you here!

Born and raised in the vibrant city of London, England, my adventures led me across the pond to embrace the American dream. 

Before embarking on my entrepreneurial journey, I explored the world as a Stewardess on private yachts – an experience I will always be grateful for.

My entrepreneurial spirit began with the launch of my first venture, a niche service business. Alongside my business partner, We carefully cultivated this enterprise from an idea to a company that served clients such as Bombardier Transportation and the US Coastguard. 

After 15 years as an owner/operator, I chose to embark on a new career path, exploring a different industry and a fresh approach to business ownership through acquisitions. 

While searching for businesses to acquire, I was invited to join a business brokerage group, where I transitioned into helping others buy and sell businesses. This shift came at the right moment, as I was navigating a personal loss that made it challenging to remain directly involved in the death care industry.

I worked under another broker for over a year while simultaneously pursuing education in business consulting and business sales. By combining hands-on experience with dedicated study, I earned accreditation as a small business consultant with the AASBC and achieved the designation of an accredited business intermediary.

When I stepped into the world of business acquisitions, I quickly noticed a common problem for many small business owners: their ideal successors—their children—aren’t interested in taking over the reins. 

At the same time, Mum and Dad typically aren't interested in selling to an investor or corporate buyer. They’ve poured decades of hard work and heartfelt dedication into their businesses. Many want their legacy to remain within the community and struggle with what feels like “selling out.”

In 2024, I founded SureStep Business Advisors to specialize in helping retiring business owners sell to next generation buyers, ensuring their businesses remain locally or family-owned.

We are committed to helping business owners find a safe pair of hands to entrust their life’s work, allowing them to step back with confidence and enjoy watching their business continue to thrive.

Outside of work, my health and fitness are a high priority, guiding my personal wellness journey. Additionally, my love for animals means I support animal rescue organizations. My home is a haven for adopted dogs and horses, each with their own rescue story, adding warmth and love to my life.
