About Me

Hello! I’m Charlene. Thanks for stopping by.

I’m a Certified Public AccountantInternational Speaker, and Published Writer. I’ve delivered keynote speeches and workshops at events all over the world and my articles have been featured in major publications including Black EnterpriseThe Huffington Post,  The Motley FoolNASDAQMSN, Forbes Travel Guide, USA TodayAccounting Today, and many more. I also serve on the Financial Review Board for Investopedia

My work experience ranges from working at a Big 4 Accounting Firm to managing finances for a top talent agency in Chicago. I started my career as a financial analyst at one of the largest banks in the world, worked as a brand ambassador for Fortune 500 companies, and appeared on television shows such as EMPIRE, Chicago PD, and Chicago Med. 

I use my experiences to help women create their own definition of career success. In 2016, I went behind the scenes of various income opportunities to expose women to the OPTIONS that exist. My experiment led to one conclusion: You can create career success and a lifestyle you love! 

In 2015, I won the pageant of Ms. Corporate America in a pageant held in Orlando, Fl. I landed over 200 community, corporate, and conference experiences. Then, I packed my bags and traveled on a six-month tour around the world. I traveled to 15 cities within the United StatesMexicoBermudaDenmarkBelgiumDenmark, and Sweden. After that experience, I knew I couldn’t return to an ordinary life. Now, I focus on pursuing activities that allow me to explore the possibilities and help others fund their dream life.
