Executives’ Club GOLD Sponsor
Community Cheerleader on a mission to help Fargo-Moorhead reconnect with our locally owned small businesses.
I am a Mom of two tiny humans, wife, and multi-business owner. I often joke that I love chaos, but in reality I simply thrive being busy and love a good challenge! “Why not!?”
My husband and I bought Phone-n-Fix in 2017, two months before having our first child LOL. At Phone-n-Fix we buy, sell, and repair cell phones, tablets, and computers. Basically if it’s electronic, we we can fix it!
I started watching the races when I was about 10-years-old, going to the Red River Valley Speedway by going with my aunt and uncle.
Back then, the cars were basically either hobby stocks or late models. I had two uncles that raced — Clinton Berg and Jim Fischer. Jim really got me hooked on racing. He taught me to build cars and do weekly maintenance/repairs.
After Jim retired from racing, I was asked to work on the track doing line-ups on yellow flags. I did that for several years and had a blast.
I worked my way up to Assistant Flagman, and after learning from one of the best in the area (Jim Smith) I became Head Flagman at the Red River Valley Speedway when he retired. Serving in this role was one my favorite racing experiences to date. I have since worked as a Competition Director/Head Flagman at several tracks in the area including Red River Valley Speedway, Buffalo River Speedway, Norman County Raceway, I-94 Speedway and Greenbush Race Park.
I also had the opportunity to work as an official for great events and series around the area including WOO Sprint Cars and WOO Late Model Events at the Red River Valley Speedway, and the Red River Coop Speedway in Winnepeg, Jamestown Speedway, and local series NLRA and NOSA. About the only track I haven’t flagged yet is the River Cities Speedway in Grand Forks, ND.
About Buffalo River Race Park:
Established in 1955, Buffalo River Race Park was one of the earliest dirt tracks in the upper Midwest to offer weekly racing. The Buffalo River Race Park opened as the Fargo-Moorhead Speedway in 1955 as a quarter-mile dirt track. From 1964 to 1967, the quarter-mile track was paved. Since 1968, the track has maintained a dirt surface. Over the years, the track has also operated under the names F-M Speedway, Fargo Motor Speedway, Glyndon Speedway, and Buffalo River Speedway. In 2007, it was renamed Buffalo River Race Park when general manager Kevin Nathe took the helm.

“Empowering businesses to scale, streamline, and succeed.”
With 14+ years of pioneering operational growth, strategic insights, and operational expertise, I stand at the helm of diverse industries to architect transformative solutions for startups and businesses, guiding them towards success.
I’ve discovered that every organization, big or small, has a unique pulse. I’ve aimed to understand that pulse, helping to refine operational procedures, and mentoring teams, always with an underlying goal: to achieve cohesive, sustainable growth.
At 654 Business Strategies, we offer not just services but transformative solutions tailored to unique organizational needs. As an Integrator, I’ve transformed visions into actionable plans, bridged communication chasms within diverse teams, and mentored tomorrow’s leaders.
Our mission? To catalyze growth, refine processes, and pave the roadmap, setting businesses firmly on the path to success.
Having laid the groundwork for multiple flourishing ventures, my forte lies in amplifying profitability, mentoring executives, and bridging communication divides.
But, it’s not just about numbers and strategies; it’s about a passion to elevate and inspire. As the host of ‘The Flourish Mindset’ podcast, I empower fellow entrepreneurs and business mavens to bring their dreams to fruition.
As a passionate public speaker and a leadership course creator, I’m keen to share insights on leadership, championing women at the corporate forefront, and the essence of productivity. It’s my humble attempt to share insights, inspire, and learn alongside others.
In a world awash with noise, I believe in making a difference – not just an impression. Every business has its symphony; I help you find and fine-tune yours.✨
