    In my ever so demanding occupation as a Sr. Executive Assistant to my CEO, using my alertness is imperative! No two days are alike. I must constantly juggle conflicting requirements, such as meeting tight deadlines. Preventing problems with care is my new motto 🙂

    Sally, Thanks. This is so accurate.

    I just love this. It cracks me up. Power + Alert = The Defender. Well, I’m a sixth degree black belt, have trained and taught 30+ years, own a martial arts school. My drive is to teach self-defense, deescalation and active shooter classes at my school, in the community and to corporate clients. Like I said, this cracks me up. It’s what I do, it’s what I love to share. The Defender. It fits! Thank you!
