  • A Few Good Hats

    hatI went to an Association of Women in Communications meeting a few weeks ago. The topic was about the job environment. One of the speakers, a writer, author and journalist showed her five or so business cards. They were all different. She wears many hats maneuvering this market.  I had thrown in the towel to real estate because the business was dry as the Sahara. I was happily doing my brother’s project  in July even though I haven’t firmly established if this is going to be full time. Take a look at what I have done so far with his website.

    I got the website going, fan page and still have alot of content to add. Since this something new that I am doing for money, I am  getting my feet wet and basically proving my abilities and skills to a family member.  I treat him just as I would any employer.

  • Job Status Change

    Since this personal blog is an organic process while I go through my career changes, instead of deleting the old, I will post my “About Blanca” chronologically instead of deleting.

    April 2008 to June, 2009 Summary of What I have been doing:

    2008 was a big meltdown for many people. Besides the real estate market crash and all my deals falling apart because my sellers were upside down, I also had to have another surgery on my ankle. So I was off my feet again for six months until October, 2008. Right now I am navigating this crazy foreclosure market in Miami and have been intensely focused since then to work the bank listings. But it is dreadfully slow and difficult to get my foot in the door.( What is this thing about my foot???:-))

    As of June 18, 2009, I will be looking for a job since the Real Estate Broker ship is sinking.( I actually have been looking for a few months, but now the search is very serious). I am putting my resume out there to be an Operations Director for a creative company.
