- BIRTHPLACE: Lubbock, Texas
- FAMILY: blissfully, happily married to Andy for 3-1/2 years.
Oldest of seven children.
- EDUCATION: Bachelor's degree in Journalism, University of
Georgia
- HOBBIES: Fishing, golf, gardening, and cooking
- ROLE MODEL: None, but I try to be a good Christian by living
the Golden Rule (treat others as you would like to be treated).
- GREATEST CHALLENGE: To continue to successfully grow our
business while maintaining our "family-like atmosphere" and relationships with
our franchisees and employees.
- GREATEST CONTRIBUTION: Successfully developing a product and
company that has had such a tremendously positive impact on so many people and so many
lives.
- WHAT I LIKE MOST ABOUT FRANCHISING: I love the positive
changes in our franchisee's lives. Everyone is so nervous and scared at first.
Later, they are so happy and they grow as individuals. Owning a Fruitfull®
franchise gives one an enormous feeling of self accomplishment and
self-esteem. I'm proud of the role that I and my staff play in that.
- WHAT I LIKE LEAST ABOUT FRANCHISING: The excessive legal
expense involved with national registrations, UFOC'S, etc. (without even having any
lawsuits) that a franchisor is forced to absorb.
- ASPIRATIONS: To continue to successfully grow our business
by expanding our Fruitfull® Family and to add
additional products that will enhance our franchisee's profits without increasing their
overhead.
- PET PEEVES: Negative people; lying; people who insist that
they hate something that they've never even tried (and refuse to try); red tees placed as
an afterthought.
