Social Entrepreneur

“I define true excellence as not only maximizing your own natural capacity for self-preservation by gaining education, money, and power, but also thinking beyond yourself to understand how to wield what you have gained to sustainably empower and genuinely care for others. Success through simultaneous self-development and selflessness is the life achievement that matters the most."

Testimonials

As a web developer, I love to code, but I honestly spent years hating the business side of my business. I love the freedom of working for myself, but I felt trapped constantly working to run the business instead of enjoying the creativity of web design and development. At times, going back to [a] 9 to 5 just seemed like the simpler solution. Dr. Kilgore-Nolan helped me to systematize my business from top to bottom. The most helpful thing she did was identify places where I could outsource, creating space and time for me to focus on coding. I almost gave up, but she kept me from going back to a 9 to 5.

Business Strategy Client, Owner of Web Technologies Agency

I read and watched everything I could about real estate investing, and I even saved cash to start, but I was afraid to expand beyond wholesaling. It felt like all I could handle, even though I “longed” for long-term real estate investment strategies. Dr. Kilgore-Nolan worked with me to develop, automate, and delegate systems to better manage my wholesaling business, which freed up time, money, and energy for the long-term investing that is now my primary focus. She clearly enjoys real estate investing and has a brilliant mind for strategy, so I left every meeting feeling more excited and clear about my plans. I can’t thank her enough!
