My artistic background includes not only education but free-lance periods of work as a personal assistant in the Bay area. I have been assistant to an entrepreneur in her start-up business where I attended to extensive details ranging from proofreading documents to personal driving and from shopping and organizing to cooking and party-planning. I have been hired to consult on home and wardrobe aesthetics as well as child-rearing issues. Physically fit, I am adept at physical labor, including gardening and re-arranging storage areas, carrying groceries etc. ** Of note for the holidays, I love gift-wrapping and decorating! My schedule is flexible and changes weekly; please inquire for further details.
