Violet

General Manager of DSG

I have a passion to see others succeed at what they love.  I am a wife, mother of two wonderfully grown daughters, two grandchildren, one of which is on our very own Showteam, and three insanely cute and cuddly granddogs. I come with many years of team leadership and business experience. I will tell you that every successful person has one thing in common, a really great mentor. I understand the power of mentorship and look forward to sharing that power and excitement with our team.
