A Message From Our Owner and Founder, Shannon Covey
As a business professional either employed by or serving as a contractor for many years in the corporate, government, and nonprofit sector, I have had the tremendous good fortune of representing organizations like Westin Hotels & Resorts, Hallmark Cards, Inc., Arizona Department of Emergency and Military Affairs, hospitals, universities and several others.
My passion stems from a deep yearning to protect the citizens of the United States and vulnerable people abroad, help those who suffer afflictions, develop creative and innovative environments, propel organizations financially, advance worthy missions, and assist corporations, nonprofits, and philanthropists in becoming more efficient, safe, and foster a mentality of excellence.
As the founder of Premier Advising Services, I stand behind our quality, effective, and economical services.
We don’t want to just be another advising firm. We want to be your partner of choice.
