Kaitlyn, with her Health and Wellness background, truly values personal growth as it goes hand in hand with professional growth.

As an avid reader and travel enthusiast, Kaitlyn is always hungry for the next adventure, whether it be trying the local cuisine or spending an afternoon in a bookstore coffee shop, you never know what possibilities are around the corner. She loves a great quote, whether it be a cheesy one-liner or something inspirational from a public speaker, author, friend, or mentor, it’s what you do with it that matters. Always remembering the best words to live by, “Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. ‘ That is why it’s called the present.”
