  • VP Product Development for a direct sales organization where she developed a product that was recognized for educational quality and served as the catalyst to an astounding increase in revenues from $5 million to $31 million in one year

  • Corporate Brand Manager for a fast-growing retirement plan administrator where she improved brand value by building the team and leading the company-wide effort that transitioned the franchisee to a new stand-alone brand

 

Carmen loves to laugh, believes in teamwork, and enjoys sharing her knowledge with others.  Her guiding principles are integrity, perseverance, and a belief that you can achieve whatever you set your mind, heart, and actions to.  Her interests include spending time with family, fishing, singing in her church choir, and professional sports.
