  • In December 2021, I opened my small business as a way to continue working with my previous employers, but on my own terms and while remaining working in my home-based office. I mainly work on Health & Safety training videos for school district employees, to include, faculty, custodians, mechanics, bus drivers and administrative staff. I also work on Safety training programs for a small number of Counties. As the school audit cycle approaches, I will also be working on the reports for school district Safety & Security audits, to include active shooter and EOP plans for many districts across Texas.

    Work has been going well and growing both with my main client and new smaller clients. My husband has been a stay at home parent for the last 4 years but our youngest starts school in the Fall. As I begin to grow my client list, my husband would also like to take on some of the workload and make this a family business, now that he will no longer have childcare duties during the day. I am getting to the point that I have more than enough work and will be unable to take on any new clients if I’m the only employee. I would like to order new equipment to allow my husband to join my team and hopefully continue to expand the business. Being blessed with the means to do that would help not only our business to grow but our family to succeed and build a better life and future for our three children.
