Meet Gabrielle

After overcoming years of adversity in my life, I have emerged from barely surviving to thriving! My journey has taught me about perseverance, change, and what it takes to go beyond the norm in business and relationships.

I believe in God, which means everything I do is Spirit led. It has been through His grace and forgiveness that I have thrived. I've been blessed with a wonderful family and a career that allows me to do what I love and fulfill His purpose for me!

With a strengthened faith and a zeal for human potential, I am indomitable in my desire for each person to break free from the apprehension that holds them back from success, happiness, and living a joyful life. In other words, becoming a Thrivor!

Thrivingly yours,

Experience

As a former software consultant and trainer I was hired to radically change how my clients did business by changing their operational software systems. After years of experiencing resistance to the positive changes my clients were making I watched productivity and profitability drop. To help my clients acclimate to the change better I set out to design a change management solution. As I began the development process, I discovered in addition to my education, I had the best learning experience of my life – 26 years of abuse. With a unique perspective and a way to not only navigate through adversity and change, but actually thrive through it, I created and wrote the book Thrivorship: Power Tools For Success.

Professionally I have over 20 years experience consulting, speaking, and training. I’m a graduate of Coaches Training Institute and Co-Active Leadership Program, and a member of American Society for Training & Development and National Speakers Association.

In addition to all that I’ve been a waitress, cashier, receptionist, customer service representative, accountant, project manager, consultant, technical writer, coach, technical and soft skills trainer, speaker, event planner, and business owner. All of these experiences add up to a greater understanding of the needs and challenges at each level of an organization. If a degree matters to you I have two; one in accounting and the other in computer science. I’m a geek with a bold personality and the ability to motivate individuals to thrive, not just survive!

Make your next event a success.
