Hello there! 👋🏼
My name is Stella - and I am just as much (if not MORE) upbeat & abundantly chipper in person. TRUST. 😆
After a tumultuous 2025, I decided to pivot away from a decade-long sales & service career with the oil & gas/petrochemical industry to reconnect with my roots as a creative entrepreneur.
From bootstrapping a business all over again - to building community and empowering alllllll the lovely humans within it - I get to not only learn new things every day, but break down those complex concepts into bite-sized pieces to teach others (which makes my little mama heart SO dang happy).
Thanks to 25+ years of micro - and global/corporate - business experience, along with a lifetime of volunteering under my belt, I understand firsthand how to help hobbyists, single-owner businesses, and non-profits gain the confidence they need to move forward with their dreams.
Whether that's becoming a better product maker, a more scalable & efficient business, or a much less chaotic volunteer-based organization, I'm here to help. 💖

So overwhelmed with how full your plate is that you don’t know where (or how) to clear it off?
Let’s fix that!
In this 60-minute POWER HOUR, we will:
Define priorities
Review existing resources

Create a ready-to-follow checklist so your brain can finally function again
If you ever find yourself paralyzed from too many decisions, doomscrolling when you should be working (because how else can you escape the panic, right?), or feeling more existential dread than excitement…I’m here to help. 💖
Let’s get you on track so you can keep that business going strong!

A picture speaks a thousand words, right?
But how many pictures do you have of your shop, staff - or what it is you offer?
In my prior life, I was a photojournalistic photographer who documented weddings, births, and military homecomings in addition to “lifestyle” family portraits and everyday Army family life.
My work has been published through various online blogs and digital publications, thousands of my prints are displayed in homes around the world, and you can even see a few of my photos on one of the episodes of “Coming Home.”
Let me apply my 20+ years of visual storytelling to your business so your clients know exactly who the amazing people (and story!) are behind the products & services they know and love. 💖
Photography services start at $500 for a 1-hour photo session
(and yes - you get ALL the good pictures! there is no limit to how many I take during our time together. you will also receive both hi-resolution & ready-to-share web-sized images, along with a signed print release should you ever need it. those pictures are for YOU - use ‘em to market your business in any and every way you can!)
Are you a new business (or thinking about becoming one)?
Do you believe that social media is an important search tool for finding new clients?
Does the thought of posting regularly on social media scare the bejeezus out of you?
Do you shut down every time you try to think of “what to post” or overthink yourself so badly that you just end up doing nothing instead?
Hi. My name is Stella.
And I was blessed (cursed? lol) with both a creative AND a mega-analytical brain, which means that I don’t just help you come up with ideas for what to post - but I help provide structure to keep those ideas going sustainably.
And I do this with a 60-minute Social Media Strategy Session via phone call, FaceTime, Zoom, or Google Meet that I’m offering for an introductory rate of $95.
Here is what our 60-minute session consists of:
After your purchase, I’ll send you a form that tells me a little more about what you do and who you serve, along with a calendar link to schedule our time.
During our call, I’ll ask deeper questions about your business. I need to hear this in your own words because this narrative will help us create authentic copy & content for your brand.
If you’re a little unsure about your target audience, we’ll spend a good chunk of our call hashing it out to create content that genuinely connects with your audience. Ain’t nobody got time to chase the latest TikTok trends.
Together, we’ll brainstorm ideas that fit your business, brand, and goals based on which “season” of business you’re in. These posts set expectations with new & returning clients and help you take charge of how you position yourself.
During our entire call, I’ll be taking detailed notes (so you don’t have to!). Once we’re done, expect a report sent with all that info. This will help you start creating consistent content for your socials.
You ready to feel confident about posting on social media? Let’s go!
P.S. Add a 30-minute Social Media Calendar Session to your cart and automatically get the bundled price!
Have you ever had a bad experience as a customer?
How did you resolve it with the company?
Or were you NOT able to, so instead, posted about your sour experience on social media in an attempt to warn others from making your same mistake?
Now, let’s flip that scenario.
As a business owner: when was the last time you fully mapped out a client’s new - and recurring - experience with your company?
If they needed to know:
Basic info (hours, who to contact and for what, location, etc.)
How to get a quote or make a purchase (you’d be surprised how many service company website are lacking this important detail)
A way to escalate issues (especially after business hours - or while you’re trying to be “unplugged” for that expensive vacation you finally took with your family)
I’ve worked with both small local businesses and huge global corporations (as well as personally experienced being a customer of both), and let me tell you: when your clients FEEL like you care, they care right back…and then tell all their friends about you.
Your Client Journey is one of the MOST important processes your small business can invest in.
If you’d like a fresh set of eyes to review yours (or help create one, if one isn’t documented yet), I’m your gal.
Note: this session can take place via one single 4-hour session, or can be broken up into 2 separate 2-hour sessions. After purchase, you will receive an email from me with links to book your time.
