Shirley is absolutely amazing. I met her through one of my Maxwell Leadership team members and she had such great things to say about her. She has upheld her reputation because she is phenomenal in what she does. She is a great mentor and coach and has helped me greatly in my transition from the military. She is always there and always supportive by providing me resources and encouragement. I am grateful to have meet and know Shirley.

After I served almost 20 years in the
US Army Shirley Baez was there to
Mentor me in 2022 helping me translate my skills to the current Workforce needs. She identified and related to the current barriers We as veterans were facing and how to overcome them. Shirley continues to be a prime example of successfully transitioning from the military lifestyle and finding your purpose. I truly appreciate all she has done for me in my growth as she continues to coach other veterans.
