Monica Upshaw

Monica Upshaw, Founder and CEO of Bellavaro, LLC, has a single driving philosophy. LEARN.TEACH.APPLY. Her business methodology is rooted in her personal value system. A value system that is grounded in education and the opportunities that education offers its participants. As a graduate of Peace College a prestigious all women’s private school located in Raleigh NC, Monica earned her degree in Business Administration with a concentration in Marketing. She has over 10 years of experience helping companies meet their goals and find success. Her objective is to share her LEARN.TEACH.APPLY. method with others to help create successful growing organizations that are prosperous and dynamic.

Monica has a deep-rooted passion for helping others.  She dedicates her free time to volunteering on the Executive Board as Vice President of Media Relations for Pinellas Early Childhood Association (Pinellas ECA)  and on the publishing committee for the Florida Association for the Education of Young Children (FLAEYC). She believes that fostering a love and appreciation for learning should begin at an early age. In addition, Monica works with many women entrepreneurs and is a member of Women Impacting Public Policy (WIPP) serving on the Procurement Committee.

“LEARN.TEACH.APPLY. has proven successful both in my personal life as well as business models. With the pace of technology and the explosion of information our ability as individuals and corporations to keep up is dependent on our ability to LEARN.TEACH.APPLY. The single greatest requirement of all successful businesses today and in the future will be the effective use of information and strategies as they unfold in the marketplace. The ability to foresee the development of the technology cycle will require us to LEARN, TEACH, and APPLY this knowledge on a continuing basis.” Monica has developed Bellavaro as a resource for business growth and success through the implementation of her LEARN.TEACH.APPLY. method.

Throughout her career, Monica has received several awards and recognition for her work in customer advocacy and community involvement.  She was nominated by the Tampa Bay Business Journal in 2008 for Business Woman of the Year.
