Columbia Professional Services

05/26/2026

As we prepare to relocate out of state, Columbia Professional Services will officially be closing on June 12th. After that date, I will no longer be accepting reference requests or performing notarizations.

I want to sincerely thank everyone who supported my business over the years. Whether you trusted me with notary services, professional support, referrals, or simply encouraged me along the way, I truly appreciate it.

This next chapter brings some exciting changes, and I’m grateful for all the connections and opportunities Columbia Professional Services brought into my life. Thank you all again for your support. 🫶🏻
