She is known for creating luxury business experiences called “masterminds” that combine exclusive retreats with business and financial education. The term “mastermind” comes from the book, Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill.

Jones grew up in the Seattle area, the youngest of 5 children. She graduated in Business from the University of Washington and went to work for a regional stock brokerage firm, Foster & Marshall, a subsidiary of Shearson Lehman/American Express. After being promoted to the regional office in San Francisco, she went on to work at their headquarters in the World Trade Center in NYC before returning to Seattle. The last 9 years of her career were spent representing mutual funds, institutional funds and hedge funds as a Regional Vice President of Morgan Stanley Investment Management, the professional investment division of Morgan Stanley.
Most of her career was in marketing and management – promoting mutual funds and professional money managers to financial advisors. To reach her personal goal of building wealth, she began investing in individual stocks on her own and made $2 million by the time she was 39 years old. After suffering the tragedy of the sudden collapse and death of her husband from a brain aneurysm, Jones set out to teach wealth building, investing and entrepreneurship to women. She founded The Global Institute of Wealth for Women in order to empower women worldwide to financial freedom. In 2014 she was awarded a bronze Stevie® Award for “Maverick of the Year – Consumer Services” by the American Business Awards for her revolutionary approach to financial education.
