Faith. Family. Giving. A full life.
Ann's Christian faith is the foundation of everything she does, in business and in life.
She has been married to her husband for more than 45 years. She is a proud mom of two adult children and a grandmother of four, including a set of triplets. Family is at the center of her world, and it shapes how she builds a business: with integrity, for the long run.
A longtime member of her church, Ann volunteers with Divine Nest, her church's foster-to-adopt ministry. For more than 20 years she has sponsored children in other countries through Food for the Hungry, and she supports other ministries close to her heart.
When she is not with clients, you will find her on the dance floor or the pickleball court.
Forty years of building businesses.
Now she engineers them for others.
Ann started in corporate management, then spent more than three decades as an entrepreneur. She has built seven businesses, sold five, and still runs two.
Working with hundreds of clients across more than 80 industries, she learned what actually moves a business forward. Not more activity. The right positioning, the right relationships and the right rooms. That is the foundation of Expert In You® Business Elevation.
Today Ann leads Expert In You®, a strategic business development and influence firm. She works with established experts, firm owners and leaders whose experience has earned more than their market position shows. She engineers the business development system that elevates their business, moves them up market and gets them seen, chosen and paid at the level they deserve.
A track record built in the real world.
You're Not Meant to Compete. You're Meant to Be Chosen.
Work Higher Not Harder.
Growth comes from operating at a higher level, not from adding more hours or more activity.
Don't Compete. Win.
When your positioning puts you in a category of one, you stop competing on price and start being chosen.
Influence Is Currency.
Positioning is perception, and perception drives decisions. Influence opens doors that marketing never will.
Be The One They Choose
The new rules for standing out and winning more business.
Ann is a four-time author and #1 international bestseller. Her latest lays out exactly how established experts become the obvious choice in their market.
