About

Welcome to Rising Tide Business Support! I'm Nellie, the founder and heart behind Rising Tide. With a rich background of experiences and a passion for small business empowerment, I've dedicated my career to supporting entrepreneurs on their unique journeys.

For the past three years, I served as the Operations Manager at The Sassy Olive, honing my skills in efficient business operations and fostering a positive workplace culture. Prior to that, I ran a successful catering business for three years, immersing myself in the dynamic world of entrepreneurship.

A key chapter in my journey included six years as a chef at a casino, where I developed detailed  training programs, managed cost percentages on a massive level, and navigated complex corporate human resource policies. Teaching cooking and food safety classes became a natural extension of my love for sharing knowledge and my passion for food. Shortly after, I started teaching cooking classes and still offer classes at my home.

Over the years, I’ve written business plans, employee handbooks and training programs for multiple businesses. I am experienced in creating and installing highly detailed operational flows. I hold a college degree in Small Business Management and Entrepreneurship, another degree in Food and Beverage Management and a certificate in bookkeeping. I’ve known what my passion is for a long time, and I’ve spent my working life attaining the experiences that would allow me to do exactly this. 

I believe that the entrepreneurial journey is not just about moving from point A to point B; it's about thoroughly enjoying the entire ride. My mission at Rising Tide is to help you be present with the fact that you are where you are. Because where you are is pretty dang cool. I do this by automating the day-to-day tasks that might hinder your ability to fully enjoy what makes you and your business special.

Let's navigate the challenges, celebrate the successes, and build a thriving business together.

Welcome to Rising Tide!
