About the Founder

As an accomplished teacher, mentor and speaker, Annmarie's passion for excellence is not only seen in her determination to commit to the vision and purpose of Integrity Training but also it is experienced in her great desire to help women identify and remove the hindrances that keep them from living out their dreams. She has an uncanny ability to see not just who people are, but who they can be and then partners with them to unearth and ignite that potential and purpose within.

At 10 years old, Annmarie was taken out of the country by a family member to an extremely remote cabin where she was raped, photographed, and sexually molested every evening for two weeks. This began a 15 year season of drugs, alcohol, promiscuity, pornography and eating disorders during which she was raped a second time at 14 years old and yet again at 18. The majority of Annmarie's first marriage after the birth of her son was characterized by extreme spending, drugs and alcohol, excessive weight gain, adultery, and domestic violence.


Annmarie experienced emotional healing, deliverance from addictive habits, and quantum leap growth in the areas of integrity, discipline, and accountability. She was not exempt, however, from problems or challenges. From 1992-1996, she was a single mother on welfare and a full-time college student. The judgment, humiliation, and disrespect she experienced as a result of utilizing welfare, food stamps and medical coupons left a profound impact on her. She says, "I knew that I had potential, ability, and purpose; however, society was eager to reject me based simply on the way I paid for my food or medical expenses. This adversity was the beginning of my understanding of my God given purpose-to unearth and ignite excellence through integrity."
