“Gabrielle is a little force of nature who I know will eclipse many of the
accomplishments of many older entrepreneurs...”
- Dr. Willie Jolley
Award Winning Speaker & Best Selling Author
“Throughout her talk, I was saying to myself “where did this kid get her
chutzpah?!”. I’m more than three times her age, and I don’t have nearly that
much chutzpah. She got up on that stage and spoke to a room of over 250
people and got a standing ovation. I realized that if a 13-year-old girl could
move a room full of adults, then half the battle is in just believing it.”
-TEDxRockCreekPark Attendee
