Julie Solheim-Roe's Curriculum Vitae E-mail: jsolheim@cr8.com US Voicemail: +1-877-539-3585 UK Phone: +44-(0)1458 832 856 Weblog: scarletjewels.com

Julie is a multi-faceted communicator, organizer, marketing coordinator, launcher, ideas generator -- with a big picture, futuristic and authentic perspective.  Julie worked with Flemming Funch in Los Angeles under the Synchronicity Networks vision of creating self-sustainable modules of linking new paradigm ideas, people and projects. Their technology is called Cr8 by OrgSpace.  We offer web-based module interfaces, offering services such as IT Consulting, Software Development, Social Software, Online Communities, Open Source, Personal and Organizational Change.

Julie is strongly interested in: collaboration, new-paradigm economics that works with the 'Cultural Creatives' and the 'invisible indicators' of morphogenesis and global change.  Julie is currently living in the ancient isle of Avalon -- Glastonbury, Somerset in the UK.  She is pictured here with her beautiful daughter Chantal Louisa Roe, born on 9th April 2001... who is now almost three already!  Last year she spent several months in the Joshua Tree region of the Mohave Desert.  Julie lived in the Los Angeles area for 9 years and was born in Portland, Oregon.

Seeking

Mutually beneficial contract relationships and partnerships. Consulting opportunities, research and portal info-gathering tools and structuring. Collaborators, and contacts in UK and Europe. Free lance only.   

Her work with Flemming in OrgSpace can handle: Creative and challenging software projects, preferably cutting-edge Internet related, or webserver administration and automation projects. Self-Organization. Knowledge Management. Preference for projects that involve communication with all stake holders, and the opportunity to see a project through its whole life cycle. Preference for projects that involve creativity and independent, self-motivated work.

Expected Compensation

Hourly: $50-150. But I prefer not to work by the hour. My enthusiasm, ideas, focused attention, creativity and experience is hopefully worth a lot more to you than punching a time card/ clock!

Monthly: A good arrangement is to agree on a monthly amount that is big enough that ample attention is given to your project -- and small enough that you can focus on longer term results, rather than on tracking hours. E.g. if you want myself or my team to help you out with determining a bit of copywrite, organizing a campaign, managing communication, for consulting with portals and creating dynamic e-interfaces, $1K might do it. If you require a lot of ongoing communication and weekly research support, $2K might do it. If you have ongoing consultantcy and software development needs, it would need to be more than that -- and would need to be done in tandem with OrgSpace and would require Flemming's programming expertise.

Full Time: Not usually done, unless it somehow harmonizes with all my other jewelled facets. If you have a very exciting project that requires most of my time, I am an unstoppable fire-horse-woman workaholic, but I'd expect to see $150-250,000/year.

Per Project: OrgSpace doesn't programming from specs from scratch for a price defined in advance. That usually doesn't work well for any of the parties. We do have some existing modules that we might configure for your use, and we might be able to put a price on that. E.g. website portal, weblog, bulletin board, article management, chat room, calendar, member area, and more.  We can use these modules to help create a dynamic interface and can be hired to help you plan, manage and research your project.  I can do a lot of e-marketing small campaigns on a project to project basis.
