I am an experienced entrepreneur and a lifelong learner. In my past life, I owned a successful Bed & Breakfast for 13 years and a boutique cupcake shop for 7 years while living in Richmond, VA.  4 years ago, I decided that I was going to live my dream. I moved to Belize and started my own Social Media Marketing Company, Mermaid Marketing. 

My business has given me the time and freedom to create an amazing company that brings me joy every day!

• Created digital ads for specific demographics for my own personal studio rental.

• Spearheaded Instagram Giveaways for Sunrise Property Management Managed the process of downloading comments and randomly selecting a winner.

Having run my own brick and mortar businesses, I understand the importance of being responsible, thorough, and timely for projects I take on for others. I have handled all social media marketing, email and phone communications for all of my business ventures, along with the creative planning aspects, such as designing menus and travel packages. I have experience with, all Microsoft products, Adobe Spark, Canva, Google Products, CropVS, Preview, Dropbox, Dive+, Later, Slack, LoopVid. I developed all of the policy and procedure manuals for my previous businesses. I have strong organizational skills.
