I wear a lot of different hats… I founded i can do that for you! in 2000, when someone very wise told me that I should try to earning a living doing something I love to do. This business is a result of a true aha moment…I call it my millennium epiphany.I worked as a corporate professional in a number of companies, always as a Production or Project Manager in the Creative Services arena. Why couldn’t I apply those project management skills to gardening, an avocation that had already yielded some “just for kicks” paying gigs? |
The next natural step was right into Home Improvements. Armed with lots of on-the-job training, natural inquisitiveness and a Department of Consumer Affairs Home Improvement License, I was off and running.
In between gardening seasons, kitchen and bath renovations and apartment revamps, I have kept my Corporate Management skills sharp as an independent contractor for hire.
When it comes to solving problems, getting organized or finding a better way, there is no reason to reinvent the wheel each time. Thinking outside the box can only be effective if it is linked to designs and routines that are truly practical and will work within the context of a person's life and work. I possess myriad business experiences that make me uniquely qualified for many office tasks.
l come from a long line of problem solvers and am proud of my reputation as an honest, resourceful, organized and articulate businesswoman. If a potential client calls for a service I don’t typically provide, I will always pass them along to the right resource. I’m rewarded, quite often, with a follow up phone call asking what else I can do for them. To me, it’s about helping people…
