The three hit it off and became fast friends! Now, they get to work their dream job helping small and mid-sized

As the idea for the new business grew, the trio knew they wanted a name that represented who they wanted to be: strong women who overcame their circumstances to create lives they love. The story of the Greek goddess, Circe, was the perfect tale that encompassed exactly that. A goddess of great power, knowledge, and strength, she turned her enemies into animals and was to be greatly respected. Circe Solutions aims to do similarly by taking any challenge their clients' are up against and facing it head on!
