Reliable, friendly, patient marketing professional and mom of a 21-year-old college student. I'm looking for occasional care jobs while searching for a flexible corporate job. I have lots of time now. After I have a full-time job, I may be able to continue helping you on evenings and weekends. For 25 years, I've managed sales, marketing, and websites related to music, education, technology, and retail, so I'm a multitasker and calm under pressure. I've coordinated large and small events and parties for corporate and family. Our family business was a gift store that sold and wrapped locally-made gifts for individuals and companies, so I'm an excellent gift buyer, shipper, etc. I can help with errands, cooking, shopping (I'm a Costco member), housesitting (I've had a pool), and transportation. My reliable SUV seats 7 people (or 5 with groceries, a stroller, or a wheelchair). I have a BA in Literature from UC Irvine, lived in Germany for a year, and speak some German and French.
