Diane also co-founded NAHBR, National Association of Home Based Recruiters in 2008. She has mentored and interviewed thousands of people nationwide, in helping them obtain a better job, as well as working with dozens of CEO’s to attract better talent, and improve company image. While Diane has spent the past two decades growing her business expertise, her true success has come from her role as a wife and mother for the past 13 years. Investing time and energy into her career diligently after college has helped her achieve her dreams early in life. She is now able to reap the Return on that Investment by having the luxury of time to spend with her two young daughters, and the ability to focus on home life and giving back thru mentoring and charity work. She is a big believer that you can have all of your dreams come true, but you need to map it out early, so you can hit all of your goals, and still be young enough to enjoy it all. She holds a BS in Business Administration, with a minor in Marketing from York College.

I am a mature Christian whose sole purpose is to serve others. I grew up in St. Louis, Missouri and now live in Dallas, Texas. I work as an Export Coordinator with Aloe Vera of America and have been doing import/exporting for the past seven years. I have been trained to facilitate adult support groups working in alcohol and drug and developing healthy relationships.

I have been in the media world for over 25 years. Such as: radio, billboard, coupon, newspaper print, tabloid. magiazine publishing and advertising. I started out in radio as an advertising sales rep then moved on to the other various medias I have mentioned above. I have written for my own publications along the way and have a tremendous passion for helping the small business person. I haved owned my own companies and have worked in mangment for top rated media companies. I love helping people, especially entreprenurs, as I have been an entrepreneur all my life. I love a challenge. I feel without challenge in your life, your life lacks all it can be. I believe that we can all have bad turns in our lives but I feel we only grow wiser and stronger from each one of them. Always remember, we grow from our negative experiences, not from the positives. I am passionate in everything I do and feel its not about how much money you make or how much money you have in your pocket, it's all about what's in your heart. I am truly passionate about "Life".. Life is NOW! Life is so precious and wonderful. Life is meant to be lived, loved, appreciated and never ever be wasted no matter if those wrong turns do happen in your life (believe me I have had my share). Just get up and brush yourself off and jump into your challenges and passions with all you have inside of yourself. Dig way down, it"s there, even in your darkest days. Give every day and every hour all you have inside yourself. Again challenge is needed in everyones life no matter what that challenge might be. Mentoring is a passion for me as you might can already notice as I write this bio. I have had great mentors along my journey in life. The advice and encourgement they each shared with me has made me the person I am today. If you have no mentor in your life, look around, he/she is there busting with knowledge and experience in the world of life. Engaging with a mentort can change the way you may be feeli
