home economist ~ personal chef ~ recipe engineer ~ food stylist
Although "traditional" jobs have made their way onto her resume, Wendy has created an array of experiences over the years having been born with the blessing (but also sometimes a curse) of being an entrepreneur... one of those genes inherited from prior generations.
The particulars of those are outlined on her resume...
She is especially fond of seeing things in new lights, and offering suggestions to folks when she sees opportunity for marketing a product or service to new markets or in new-fashioned ways. Believing that new isn't always better, sometimes it is just a matter of new eyes seeing an "old" product or service... and simply repackaging it for wondermous new results!!!
Says Wendy..."Unfortunately, we are a 'dying breed, but I truly believe that my education degree as a Home Economist gave me a great foundation in so many areas. The sheer practicality and diversity in that discipline of simply living and managing life, coupled with my varied experiences, have taught me how to see things from both the consumer standpoint as well as the provider. Being well-versed on both sides of the coin, and whether I'm offering a product or service to or for my clients, or am the customer myself, I always stop to think and wonder... 'can this be done better, more efficiently, more user-friendly'... and it is with that mindset I offer any of my pantry full of personal ingredients, inquiring mind and solutions-oriented passion to you and yours!"
Not one to be boxed in, Wendy eagerly seeks new opportunities where her creativity and enthusiasm can be offered to clientèle with various and sundry needs.
"One person with passion is better than forty people merely interested."
