She has not only been involved in individual sales, but the training, coaching and leading of other sales people. In the early 1990's another avenue opened up for her to dedicate herself. Her parents were growing older and with that came health issues for them. She knew it was time to help them with their old age challenges any way she could. It was time to embrace being a caregiver. Little did she know it would be one of the most challenge careers of her life. She has since been helping 5 other loved ones navigate the experience of old age. Nan is an author of two blogs.
