My name is Christy Riegert and I want to share a bit about myself with you.  I am a very energetic and independent woman. I am constantly looking for personal growth and adventure.  I’d consider myself to be a mindful risk-taker, curious and a healthy skeptic by nature. Family, Integrity, and Kindness are some of my most core values, and always with a dose of humor.  Some of my most passionate hobbies are; Yoga, Drawing, Photography, Entertaining, and my Motorcycle.    ​ Having spent the greater part of my life now in corporate American, I’ve learned so much.  I’ve always been afforded the benefit to be surrounded by great leaders, phenomenal co-workers, a some pretty awesome rock star employees.  I’ve had opportunities to continuously learn and travel.   The list of accomplishments far out ways the failures, but the opportunities to take away valuable experience has always been the prize.  ​ I am a Wife, a Mom, a Sister, a Niece and a Friend.  I’m at my best when I’m needed and feel a great sense of purpose. I’ve faced many adversities throughout my life and have always managed to take away something positive, even upon some of life’s most difficult moments.   It is with all of this in mind that I have made a conscious decision to become a Life Coach and Business Consultant. My mission is to help others to set and meet their goals as a partner in their journey to SUCCESS!

Jaimie Haver is a different kind of CEO, she is the Founder and Chief Enthusiasm Officer of Happy Manufacturing, Inc., where she works with companies to help them optimize their processes by improving collaboration across departments, educating every person involved in a step about why what they do matters, not just in the moment, but somewhere else down the line in the life-cycle of the agreement, and documenting the heck out of the processes so they are clear for everyone.

Jaimie began her career in the equipment leasing and finance industry in 1987, and today, she will still say, “I love leasing!”  Jaimie lovingly earned the nickname “Mother Funder” for her leadership and nurturing style.  She has a deep appreciation for the services provided by the finance industry to companies of all sizes and trusts the work involved in delivering these services really matters, the work should be rewarding, and the work should be fun. Jaimie models her solution of putting FUN back in funding through disciplined processes.

Jaimie has benefited from performing every role in the life cycle of a lease and finance agreement, as an independent lessor, and with a bank owned leasing company. She retired as the SVP of Operations from Hanmi Bank Equipment Leasing Division in 2021, and quickly realized she missed working with the teams delivering financial services and coaching the next generation of professionals. During her years of service, she enjoyed sales, documentation, funding, and audit, so decided to continue to be of service and share learned wisdom and optimism, and put the FUN in funding, one process at a time.

Hello! I have an extensive career in equipment finance through various operational roles from third party risk and credit underwriting to documentation and customer service. Additionally, I wore many hats: management, data governance, reporting and analytics, system implementations, training/mentoring, technical writing, and project management. My career seemed to have a job description with a single bullet point - “other duties as assigned”. 😊

I love problem solving, research, and strategy. Innovating systems and processes, exploring connections, and creating efficiency energize me. Through years of collaboration, I gained a systems and process artistry of intuition and empathy. Refined intuitive skills allow me to recognize others’ questions and frustrations, which leads to streamlining processes, enhancing systems, synergizing technical documents, and creating transparency across work groups. I have a Master of Arts in Organizational Leadership to connect all these pieces, which positively impacts organizational effectiveness, engagement, and business outcomes.

I love supporting people in career and knowledge development. Education and learning are highly-valued, and I am a life-long learner, with a Bachelor of Arts in Education. I value connecting to others through networking, coaching, training, and mentoring. Effective collaboration, an understanding of emotional intelligence, a belief in each person’s value, and a trust in the power of diversity allow me to positively impact team morale, engagement, and work culture.
