Mindful Mentoring with Tom Martin- Episode Three: Jacquie Dalton, President Sparrow Exec. Jets

She was a high school dropout with little prospects for the future when she began hanging around a horse racing track in New Jersey, mucking horse stables and hoping she might one day get to ride. Someone took a chance on her and she ended up winning her first mount as one of the country’s first female thoroughbred jockeys. She went from racing thoroughbreds to sitting in the back of the room at a local community college, but a professor saw potential in her and encouraged her to aim higher. She ultimately graduated magna cum laude from Northwestern University.  She worked as an entry level marketing associate until other mentors helped her on a journey that culminated in founding her own executive jet charter company, Jacquie Dalton's story is indeed something special. Hear how mentors changed the course of her life and helped lead her to her current role as Founder and President of Sparrow Executive Jets, on this episode of Mindful Mentoring.
