With 35 years in leadership, Sherry has devoted her skills to mentorship programs, and leadership development. By focusing in on team building, communication and business relationship skillsets, she has helped many new leaders to better their positions within their organizations and with clients and contractors.

Achieving her Masters in Health Administration has provided Sherry opportunity to concentrate on leadership, middle manager development, and change management. Using these dynamic skills has meant successful fundraising campaigns totaling more than 25 million and shifting organizational process and culture for staff and clients in more than a dozen major projects.

In addition, Sherry is an established speaker, presenter and host for secondary educational institutes, major fundraisers, virtual sessions, and national conferences. Her ability to bring the power of stories into the presentations helps the audiences to connect with the cause and subject matter in ways that can move people to change and action.

When all is said and done, Sherry equates success to seeing managers and leaders develop their skills so that they gain confidence and competence in where they are and where they want to be. Everyone has moments of questioning their management abilities, and Sherry wants to ensure that these individuals develop their talents to further raise their skills to optimal levels of excellence for both their personal career paths and their organizational success.
