My background is in education. I have always dreamed of opening a women’s boutique, and last year I turned my dream into a reality with the help of friends and family. Parker Post is a women’s boutique featuring thoughtfully selected clothing, accessories and gifts. We create a welcoming shopping experience where women feel confident, valued and inspired.
I have always loved fashion. I like to help women find the perfect outfit so they feel confident and beautiful. It is about making connections.
My time in education taught me patience, leadership, compassion and the importance of building relationships. These skills continue to guide me as a business owner and a community member.
Create a system and operation for everything. A friend introduced me to the book “The E-Myth Revisited,” which transformed my approach to business.
Retail is more than selling clothes. It requires constant problem-solving, relationship-building, adaptability and hard work to create an experience customers love and want to return for.F
Helping women feel confident, building meaningful relationships and creating a welcoming space for community and connection inspire me and make Parker Post a joy to return to every day.
Balancing business ownership, family life and the challenges of retail while building a new brand has required resilience, faith, adaptability and a strong support team.
Camp Aldersgate is a nonprofit close to my heart because it creates life-changing experiences. I hope to become more involved this year.
The grand opening of Parker Post Boutique has been my favorite career moment so far. Seeing a lifelong dream come to fruition surrounded by family, friends and community was amazing!
I never expected technology and problem-solving skills to be so important in retail. I manage inventory systems and online sales, social media and daily business operations all with technology.
Walking and working out help clear my mind, reduce stress and stay mentally strong. This gives me the energy and balance needed to lead Parker Post well.
I take a long walk and pray. It helps clear my mind, refocus my perspective and gives me peace and direction moving forward.
