After traveling the world with my family in my youth (my father worked as an
International Financier), I received a B.A. from Bennington College in
Vermont. In my twenties I tried many fields; Casting Director, Production
Assistant, Law School… searching for a fulfilling career path. When I
became pregnant a couple of years after getting married, I happily made the
decision to stay home and dedicate myself to nurturing my growing brood.
Nine years into home schooling my three children, I started my own Direct Sales
business selling cooking tools, both to contribute financially and create an
adult world for myself. Within two years, I had become a Director,
however, the financial gains were not commensurate with the hours of work I was
putting in and I was sure there had to be a better way.
Coincidentally, just as I was becoming unhappy with my original company, I
hosted a For Your Pleasure party for my friends. I was immediately
intrigued by the potential business opportunity, not to mention that I instantly
knew this was the product for me. However, to be honest, I was concerned about
who besides me would want to buy or sell sex toys, which I knew
was important to my sucess. After a year of mulling it over, my
husband convinced me to make the leap to selling Romance
Accessories. I chose FYP because I was clear that their program
offered the best compensation package coupled with the biggest variety of
products for an incredibly diverse clientele. That was April 2004. In
three months with FYP, I equaled the income it had taken seven years to build
before, AND I did that entirely through my own personal sales. At the end of 18
months I had reached the first of many personal milestones; becoming the top FYP
IBA in Personal Sales in 2005.
I am steadily reaching all the milestones I have set for
myself with FYP. I’m writing this biography in Oaxaca, Mexico at the
end of an eighteen day vacation. After only 2 years, I have managed to help
thirty like-minded women start their own successful businesses and our team of
Naughty Nymphettes has been consistently working together to accomplish the
dreams we have each set for ourselves. I am currently a Managing Regional
Director and member of the 2006 FYP Advisory Board.
I am constantly surprised at the ease with which I have been able to
build such a successful business with FYP. I never knew what I wanted to
be when I grew up, but now I know. I want to be a Presidential Director with
FYP, not only to contribute to my family’s lifestyle but to fulfill the passion
I have discovered for empowering women in their sex lives and in their quest for
financial independence.
