Title: Marketing and communications manager

Company: SouthTech

What was the best business advice you've ever received?

Make sure your business is working for you rather than you working for your business.

If you could choose another profession, what would it be?

Working with animals. I would like to help those that do not have homes.

What is the biggest risk you've ever taken in your career?

My husband and I merged our business, LEDS Computer Solutions with SouthTech in December 2011. We survived the recession and moved on to bigger and better opportunities.

If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you start?

I prefer to start in the U.S. and my goal is to get to Yellowstone.
