I have been working in the bail bond industry for eleven years now as a skip tracer and bail agent. My mind is constantly racing with new ideas for making money every day. I am not the artistic type by a long shot, so I am hoping to be able to use this venue to flesh out ALOT of ideas I have, and am perfectly willing to take any artist(s) along for the ride if we see eye to eye.

If you need something written, I'm your girl. I also love to read, so if you want me to look over anything and give you some feedback, I would be more than happy to. When it comes to data entry, I average 100-120wpm on a 10-key if not more. I am fast and accurate. My skills as a personal assitant are fantastic. I absolutely love helping other people accomplish their daily tasks. I can easily memorize birthdays and anniversaries. I am great with scheduling and reminders.
