Four kids later, she had honed in her project management, multi-tasking, and time management skills and decided to re-enter the workforce. M Scarlett Bookkeeping and Administrative Support Services was started when Marissa discovered a need for freelance bookkeeping and administrative support in her hometown of Pinawa, Manitoba. Today, she happily supports many clients within the province.
