My rates are flexible, depending on how much time you commit to per week. An open contract with no commitment uses the highest rate. My standard rate schedule is:

  • $100 per hour for no defined hours per week
  • $90 per hour for 10–20 hours per week
  • $80 per hour for 21–30 hours per week
  • $70 per hour for 31–40 hours per week

Due to changes in our industry, as of 2024, my rates have been reduced. Rates are subject to change in new agreements.

How much time do things take? I want you to be happy with your investment. Let's talk to understand where we can start. I will provide a plan with estimated work, which we can mold to your needs and budget.
