Summary

I have been out of the work force since October 2016, when I sold my business. Since then I have been very busy helping my daughter develop successfully her Interior Design and Architecture business, traveling and generally enjoying free time.

Now I am at a stage where I would like to get back into the workforce in a part time capacity, whatever that challenge may be.

I am a seasoned professional with many years of experience in sales, staff motivation, genera business operations, optimizing processes, and implementing cost-effective strategies, budgets and bookkeeping. Skilled in strategic planning, staff development, and operational efficiency, consistently improving workflow and reducing costs. Proven track record of enhancing overall business performance through effective leadership and innovative problem-solving.
