I’ve helped administrative assistants master soft skills and leadership skills that lead to more satisfaction, influence and recognition at work. I’ve also helped executives approach productivity strategically and realize the full potential of support staff. That’s my mission. I’m not one to toot my horn, so I’ll let them tell you what it was like to work with me.

"I had an awesome 'pick-your-brain' conversation with Debbie last week. Let me tell you she is a powerhouse of information/advice. I had a situation I needed an unbiased 3rd party point of view and she gave me her spin on things and my problem is solved. I strongly suggest other EA's, PA's and AA's swing by her website and check out her offerings. It's well worth it."

I have been an Executive Assistant to the President and CEO of our organization for 10 years… have found myself overwhelmed and defeated when I look back at the end of the day consumed by the calendar. Thanks to your workshop I am encouraged to take measurable and realistic steps to gaining a better sense of control over my day and my executive’s calendar!"

"The Office Rockstar Playbook is a story of administrative excellence at its best! Debbie shares her story of stepping out of her comfort zone as she weaves in critical tips on how she succeeded by being all in. Her statement, “You won’t know the outcome if you don’t try” is spot on! This book is not just for the administrative professional; it is saturated with insights to help anyone transform and grow, professionally or personally. Rich in wisdom and courage with hints of laughter, this book inspires and leaves you ready to challenge yourself."

"I was floored by all that Debbie juggled and accomplished over her career. I had no idea how much CEOs rely on their executive assistants to make sure they can do an amazing job, and it was clear that she played a significant role in her CEO's success. Even more, I was blown away by her passion for developing other people in her field. The skills and tools she developed over the years aren't just valuable for other EAs. They're essential success skills for anyone who has a demanding corporate job or a business to run."
