01 Meet your coach

She built her own agency first. Now she builds yours.

Born in Jamaica, Diane came to the United States in 1984, earned her BSN and spent years at the bedside in Atlanta's hospitals before founding ExcelCare by Divinee in 2010. In 2020 she launched GreenLight to help new owners skip the guesswork she once faced.

Today she coaches entrepreneurs through licensure, credentialing, audits and growth, with the same faith, warmth and persistence her clients rave about.
