About April

In my never-ending quest to be a fearless entrepreneur, I found success in interior decoration and decorative painting and finishing while raising my children. From 2014-2019 I took those passions and opened my own retail store selling vintage and antique home décor, furniture and the best decorative painting supplies in the market. I taught hundreds of women, men and even children to tap into their creative side as we painted, crafted and created together. As I became respected leader in that industry, I found great joy as my global following looked to me for my passion, creativity and inspiration. Together with a business partner, I helped small business owners from across the US and Canada find more balance and focus in my own business Mastermind. I hosted creative and business retreats and found a great love for teaching, speaking and mentoring in many different ways. After deciding to close my retail store, I continued my passion for mentoring others by coaching and mentoring individuals through various challenges in their lives. 

In January of 2021 I set down all of my business endeavors moved away from home to be the full time caregiver of my sweet mother as we navigated the last year of her life. During that time, I again had many life changing lessons and gained new perspectives that forever changed me. While my mom's condition worsened, I stepped up to help with her non-profit that she had spent the previous 16 years of her life building. After the passing of my dear friend and mother, I am now the Executive Director of that non-profit, Hearts Knit Together. I have the gift and privilege of carrying on her legacy as I help to expand our reach and help individuals in our state who are victims of domestic violence, sexual assault and who are refugees finding their new home in our beautiful state. I travel throughout the state of Utah sharing our mission and the amazing story of my mom and those who started this selfless work. 

Over the years, I have grown in my passion to share my many experiences, life lessons and strategies for self improvement with business owners, entrepreneurs and women's groups across the US. With public speaking, mentoring and my progress driven coaching programs, I thrive on helping others find new perspectives and new success in physical, emotional and spiritual health and wealth. 

While my journey hasn't been an easy one, I feel honored to be known for my optimism, creativity, and grit. I love deeply, cry easily, and live honestly.
