JACQUELYN OF MANY TRADES

Opening the Shell of Opportunity to Reveal Your Pearl of Great Price


Oyster

I grew up on a small island in Rhode Island, where everyone knew everyone else and a handshake was your word and bond. This foundation of trust and loyalty shaped who I am today—values reflected in my maiden name, Belshaw, which carries the family motto "Loyal au mort" (Faithful unto death).

Growing up with a call on my life to be an ordained United Methodist pastor, I attended Greensboro College where I majored in Religion and minored in Sociology. While at Drew University Theological School, my call changed, but I graduated with an MDiv and began working at Coopers & Lybrand as a consultant.

In 1999, we moved to North Carolina. My career has taken me through large corporations and small businesses, in both secular and religious worlds. It wasn't until I accepted a job as a membership coordinator—and later an assistant church administrator—did I start seeing my true call into this side of the church.

I am a person that strives to learn—I always asked if I could watch as computers, networks, and phones were being serviced. Who would have thought I'd find such a passion for technology? That passion extends into how I connect people. I currently maintain several Facebook groups and pages dedicated to preserving the legacy of the people and places that shaped me. Whether it's a sports update for fellow Red Sox fans or changing information on one of my 4 Facebook pages, I believe in organizing what matters so that memories—and people—are never lost. When my time at the church was done, I started working as a licensed security guard. I enjoy meeting people and experiencing events first-hand, but I needed more. With all this knowledge swimming around in my brain, JACquelyn of Many Trades was born.

While I have operated under this name before, 2026 marks a new chapter of professional commitment. Now fully established with a formal business structure and an EIN, I am looking forward to really working and delivering the highest standard of care. I have narrowed my focus to my most essential skills: Data Excellence and serving as a Creative Director and Church Shopper for ministries.

Thanks for coming—I hope you enjoy the rest of the site and I look forward to the possibility of our handshake becoming a bond of excellence. True to my Belshaw heritage, I remain faithful to every commitment I make.
