As inflation makes Bay Area living even more expensive, one single mom told us her full-time job wasn't enough to make ends meet. So 'Jenn of All Trades' started a small business as a handywoman — doing home improvement, to improve life for her two kids.
After a few years working on staff at Habitat for Humanity, Webber decided she wanted to join the Navy — and break some barriers along the way.
The Seabees' motto is"Can Do!" — and Webber said she summoned that problem solving spirit again, years later, when a divorce left her raising two growing boys on a single income. "My boys still have several years of school left," she said."And the schools here are just unmatched." Among the handful of initial customers he referred to Webber, a few posted their rave reviews on social media. Despite not having her own social media presence at all, Webber became an online sensation in her East Bay community, practically overnight.
Reading the directions, she said, saved her from having to stop in middle of the project, leaving the door with a gaping hole in it. It's lessons like that, learned through years of experience, that Webber says separate the professionals from the amateurs.
