How George & Mary-Lynn Live Life on Their Own Terms
I realized early in my career that I wanted to work for myself. My Mom wasn’t thrilled; she wanted me to get a job for a large organization so I had security. I chose a different path. Over the last 27 years, I’ve owned, managed and invested in a number of businesses, franchises, and real estate.
About fourteen years ago, I was offered the opportunity to teach Entrepreneurial Finance at the University of Illinois. I discovered that I had a passion for teaching and learning. By the way, when my Mom would introduce me to people, this is what she focused on!
Bigg Success combines all my passions, including working with a certain young lady named Mary-Lynn. We’re partners personally and professionally. It wouldn’t work for everyone, but it works for us! That’s life on my own terms!

I’m so lucky that my parents listened to WGN-AM radio out of Chicago when I was growing up. That’s how I decided my profession, and credit that to Bob Collins, “Uncle Bobby”. He was such an amazing broadcaster…smart, funny, creative, caring, and everybody loved him. He inspired me to get into radio.
I’ve spent 20-plus years as a radio broadcaster, moving from city to city while climbing to the prime time shift of hosting morning radio, and most recently hosting my own top rated local radio talk show. In addition to being recognized by the Illinois Broadcasters Association for my radio shows over the years, I also won several awards for my audio production.
I came to a crossroads in my career and life not too long ago. My industry as a whole was and is still going through tough times, and moving somewhere could be risky. In addition to that, I was engaged to George! He is truly my best friend, and I want us to have many wonderful experiences together.
Bigg Success lets me combine my broadcasting and production talents to have the type of show I’ve always dreamed of, build a brand of my own, and learn new skills as an entrepreneur.
I offer freelance audio and production services for small business to Fortune 50 business. My clients include COUNTRY Financial, WLS-AM, and Microsoft.
I’m living life on my own terms and loving it!
