Experience

Whitney Ramirez is a driven and accomplished individual who has made a name for herself in the business world. She graduated with a bachelor's of science degree in biology, with the ultimate goal of attending medical school. However, Whitney's journey was not without obstacles. She had been dealing with Crohn's disease since the age of 15, and the flare-ups she experienced often hindered her success.

Despite her struggles, Whitney never lost her determination. She found a doctor who listened to her and treated her with aggressive medication, which helped manage her symptoms. However, the flare-ups still made it difficult for her to attend medical school. Recognizing that patients deserved better than what she could offer at the time, Whitney took a different path.

While completing her bachelor's degree, Whitney joined a company called Tier Level. She was the company’s first employee, and she quickly rose through the ranks. She now proudly stands as the CEO of a $2.5 million dollar company with 30 employees under her leadership. Whitney's success is a testament to her hard work and dedication.

As the CEO of Tier Level, Whitney has been able to advocate for healthcare and make a positive impact. Her accomplishments have allowed her to do what's best for her health while still making a difference in the lives of others. Whitney is a true inspiration and an example of how perseverance and hard work can lead to success.
