Building a business is one thing. Building one that creates lasting value is another.

WHY MAGGIE

I've been in your seat. I've built, scaled, and sold a company. Now I help other founders build what comes next.

I founded Rustic Wedding Chic in 2008 and grew it into a nationally recognized brand before selling to David's Bridal in 2020.

I've experienced firsthand the opportunities, challenges and decisions that come with building a business and what it takes to create lasting value.

Today, I bring that experience directly to founders as a strategic advisor and thought partner, helping them see opportunities, navigate complex decisions, strengthen their businesses and plan for what's next.
