Now her agency is composed of 10 FTEs, a team of content experts responsible for some of the most talked-about pop culture moments, books, and noteworthy speeches. This year, they’re around the bend of hitting $500,000 in revenue.  Pauleanna defines success as servant leadership. She loves it when people hear the real stories of their clients.
