Pure genius.  Every session she uncovers more and more that I never knew was there plus she draws out my creativity on a deeper level.  I love how she takes my notes and plans and expands the concepts beyond my imagination.  Brillant.  AE - Phx, AZ

I have had the pleasure of working with and knowing the owner of BuildThatBiz for over 10-years and in a word to describe her work performance, work ethic, and dedication, all I can say is simply.......BRILLIANT! She can succeed at anything she desires; she is a Rock Star!! and possesses a wonderful attitude. She is an awesome manager, very personable, and drives hard for project completion. Her practical knowledge of quality assurance and regulatory affairs is certainly among the best I've ever encountered and I would strongly recommend her for any personal/professional endeavor she seeks!  TM, QE, BMT - Gary, IN

I had the pleasure of working with the BuildThatBiz owner.  Her enthusiasm, teamwork, talent and professionalism created an outstanding culture within our organization. I would highly recommend the BuildThatBiz owner.  PK, AHM - Tempe, AZ 

I just want to thank you for all the many things you do for us.  The hard work on audits, documents, customer inputs but also just your steady presence, keeping us on track.  Thank you for sharing your wisdom.  It is great to have you around.  TK, COO - Tempe, AZ

Top qualities of the BuildThatBiz owner: Great Results, Expert, High Integrity

The BuildThatBiz owner and her support team, are my life support.  PDW, SP - Phx, AZ

BuildThatBiz staff have done a wonderful job directing QARA at GMSB and also as de facto head of Development as we await hiring a VP of Development. She has a deep knowledge of FDA related matters and the overall development process.

MH, CSO - Tucson, AZ

The BuildThatBiz owner is a true expert. She has provided the leadership to support the implementation and ongoing improvements that led us to successful ISO 9001 & 13485 certification. She is an excellent communicator with all levels of the organization, with customers, and with external auditors. I strongly recommend consideration of BuildThatBiz. AM, CEO - Tempe, AZ

I worked with the BuildThatBiz owner  for four years at MBS/LS as Director of Chemistry and R&D; Research and development in general is notoriously difficult to convert to the idea of a quality system.  The owner  combined a  well-thought out application of QA to R&D; needs, considerable skill, and the force of her delightful personality, convinced the skeptics. She is an excellent leader, because she not only implements the system, but makes it work by getting people to buy into the idea. She is also an excellent auditor, attuned to details, but not focused on trivialities. She sees the overall picture.  I would hire the BuildThatBiz owner as a consultant, or a full time director without any hesitation. I recommend her most highly. CB Dir R&D - Tempe, AZ

The owner of BuildThatBiz has been invaluable as a MA consultant. MA would not be where it is today without her guidance and support.  BS, President BSC - Scottsdale, AZ

I had the distinct pleasure of being the HR Business Partner supporting the BuildThatBiz owner and her team in Arizona as a part of MLS and AHM. Besides being an awesome leader, the owners quality acumen and knowledge of FDA and ISO regulations helped to build a solid foundation for all the businesses she supported. If I owned a manufacturing establishment, I would consider hiring her company to provide auditing, training and consulting in QARA, Project Management.

AZ, HR MLS - Tempe, AZ

The BuildThatBiz owner epitomizes what a good professional can bring to an organization. A great colleague, manager, and team player who is able to resolve conflict, lead initiatives, and drive change. A mentor to her team, the owner was well respected not only by her direct reports but also by her colleagues as well as upper management. Actively taking part in numerous projects that identified, resolved, and then monitored critical programs that reduced waste and improved efficiencies. The owner is an astute, dedicated professional who understands the complex systems that drive improvement in the ever-changing world of business. The owner of BuildThatBiz would be an invaluable asset to any new business start-up or established organization.
