Summary

I've ran two successful Online Businesses for the past 8 years. I've worked with budgeting, data entry, invoicing, ordering inventory, and working with manufacturers that supply my goods. im very computer savvy, work quickly and proficiently.


I have been a stay at home mom and business owner for 7/8 years, although I love running my own business, it also consumes a large majority of my time away from my daughter and husband. Moving forward I would like a more structured schedule to maximise efficiency of my time.
