I’m Schoan, Purple Ink’s Chief Operating Officer. I joined the Inksters in June, 2018. I was honored to have the opportunity to bring my Public Relations and Customer Service experience to the team.

The Arranger in me loves to find where people excel and then fit those pieces into the puzzle to accomplish a group goal. I believe that each member of the team is valuable and has something to contribute. It’s rewarding to help them see that too.

As a person whose father had Alzheimer’s, I learned the amazing power of Positivity. Throughout his illness he was always thanking the staff who assisted him. He could not have a conversation without including some way to compliment my mother. He set an example that was a marvelous gift that keeps giving because it pushes me to follow his lead.

Helping colleagues find their strengths and increase their confidence is my favorite part of leading people. As a Developer, I get a kick out of introducing people to new topics and skills and then watching them grow and achieve more than they believed possible.
