President, CEO at Maggie Moves

April 2009 - September 2010

While actively seeking employment from 2009 to 2010, I started Maggie Moves as a privately-held business. Subsequently, my firm was awarded The Boston Business Journal's "Who's Who in Cambridge" (2010-2011), my firm was a relocation consulting firm assisting corporations with their relocations from start to finish. My goal was to rid corporations of unnecessary stress and lost productivity on corporate moves by providing all the necessary steps from move inception to move-in (e.g., hire Real Estate Brokers, Architects, General Contractors, Move Companies, etc.). In addition, I expanded Maggie Moves in 2010 to assist Senior Citizens and their families forced to abandon their (or parents) homes due to managed care issues. My firm worked closely with the family to ensure all excess furniture was sold at professional auctions or donated to organizations in need of the family's choice (e.g., Salvation Army, homeless and veterans organizations) to ensure their relatives homes were ready for whatever the family had in mind (e.g., rental property, sale, etc). My goal was paramount to my success -- to place a mindful emphasis on the emotional toll on all parties involved.
