What we do: Schweitzer-Snellen's motto is "Streamlining Your Day." As a life management assistant, she is available to do local errands like grocery shopping, drop off-pick-up of cleaning, alterations, videos, shoes, prescriptions and other jobs. She is an insured, bonded notary who will provide notary services at your home. The minimum charge is $30 for one hour. She will assist with party planning and house sitting. Schweitzer-Snellen has lived in Shelby County for about three years and sees a need for this service.

What we say: "I'm so happy and pleased to be out here" in Shelby County. Her goal is "to be part of the community." She hopes word of mouth helps her do some of the mundane things like standing in line for auto tags or waiting at home for a repairperson. "There's not anything like this out here," she said. Schweitzer-Snellen said she wants to "provide clients with a professional and enthusiastic attitude and improve their quality of life by working with them to relieve stress, maximize time away from the office, provide time to focus on areas of life that are important to them."
