More of the James Island work is personal than business, and a striking amount of it is about weather and family. We built a hurricane readiness officer for a family whose evacuation plan had to account for two kids, a dog and a grandmother in Summerville — including a room-by-room home inventory their insurer would actually accept.

Alongside that: a daughter managing her mother’s move into assisted living, a retired schoolteacher turning decades of photographs and documents into a searchable family archive, a vacation-rental company running Saturday changeovers across homes on Folly Beach and Isle of Palms like a flight operation.

Different jobs, same underlying request — hold all the pieces so nothing falls through at the worst possible moment.
