Before moving to Tulsa, I spent two hours a day commuting, feeling drained and disconnected from life outside work. Since relocating, I’ve reclaimed my time, prioritized my mental health, and found true balance. Now, I’m investing the energy I used to spend on logistics into more meaningful things.

After 30+ years in Chicagoland, my husband Jimmy and I have found more opportunities in one year in Tulsa than ever before. Jimmy expanded his business, bought a company, and joined a local band, while I rediscovered my love for horses, started a garden, and pursued my passion for jazz.

Moving to Tulsa was about more than just a new location—it was about being part of Black Wall Street’s legacy and supporting Black businesses in tech. After researching Tulsa’s growing tech economy, I knew this was where I wanted to be. Outside of work, life here is incredible—coming home to a yard and hearing birds chirp is something I never experienced in Los Angeles.

After attending Tulsa Remote’s Plugged In conference, I’m more convinced than ever that remote work is the future. This experience reignited my appreciation for meaningful discussion and the profound importance of community and connection in remote work.
