About Us

As the CEO, I founded SunUp Group in 2009 to support small to mid-size businesses in turnaround, growth, and startup. We dig deep to help companies and thought leaders develop strong brand foundations and marketing strategies.

I am passionate about working alongside business owners helping them find new opportunities and develop a plan for growth.

How We Got Started

I spent 10+ years as a Senior Executive managing 20 offices and 300+ people, a $15 Mil P&L, sales, marketing, and operations, and successfully climbed the corporate ladder. When the housing marketing crashed in 2007, I decided to get out of the financial services industry and start a firm to help small to mid-size businesses start, grow and/or turn around their business. I am passionate about helping businesses thrive.
