A Little About Me:

Hello friend, I am Dr. Laci C. Robbins. My experience is rooted in the field of education and non-profit management. Over the course of my career, I have been blessed to study at my dear Fisk University, Harvard, and even NASA! And most recently, I have served the local Milwaukee community in my role as an Executive Director for a local non-profit company, winning awards along the way. I quit my job after being a principal for six years and moved to Florence, Italy!

In 2017, my husband and I founded Robbins’ Nest Consulting. The goal remains to consult small and mid-size businesses on topics such as workplace civility and talent retention, as well as to support high powered women to build a platform and make more money. I'm glad you are here, from process to practice, grab your stilettos and let’s go!
