Happily married for many years to an amazing man. Mother of 2 sons and 2 amazing granddaughters.  Moved to South Caroline in 2015 from California. Love living in the low country  My husband is retired, but retirement is not for me.  I love working.  I enjoy meeting and working with people. I enjoy learning new things.  At my last job I created and launched a new business plan for I Love Scheduling.  A completely new revenue stream for the company.  I launched ILS, hired and trained all the employees and within 6 months grew to revenue of more than $200K per month.  

I am a committed employee and consistently work to be a part of the team.
