Hello, I’m Vanessa! 

I thrive on challenging conventional thinking in both life and business, aiming to reshape perspectives and foster the belief that every individual is inherently creative, constantly evolving, and deserving of celebrating their uniqueness and self-worth. In a world that often encourages a singular career path or vision, I reject the notion of limiting oneself to just one dream.

My journey into entrepreneurship began at the age of 15 when I embarked on my first business venture. Since then, I've successfully built six diverse businesses, ranging from brick-and-mortar establishments to service-based and product-focused enterprises. Each venture has not only deepened my knowledge but has also left a profound impact, humbling me with the realization of the positive change I could effect.

Guided by a blend of strategy and energetics, I've come to understand the untapped power within individuals that can lead to success in both life and business. This realization fueled the creation of Creative CEO, where I leverage my expertise and career experiences to empower business owners, helping them elevate their enterprises while staying aligned and inspired at every turn.
