At 22, Mary started with a Fortune 1000 Payroll/HR company at just $13/hour in an admin role, but quickly acquired the skills and training required to advance into mid-market sales. She rapidly found success by listening to clients and always solving their needs; putting their agenda before her own. Even when Mary's sales approach was the direct inverse of corporate, she knew in her heart what was right, and did the job with integrity and grit - driving results for both herself and her clients.


In 2011, she left to become a business strategist for entrepreneurs and founded Butterfly Creative, LLC. Her vision expanded into youth entrepreneurship education and she eventually went back to the Payroll/HR company serving larger, more complex companies in 2014. Mary left in 2017 after two Top 25 and one Top 10 finish and millions more sold. She returned as CEO to her firm, Butterfly Creative LLC, rebranded as Sales BQ from 2017-2020.
