Based on the skills and experience listed, I'm estimating an hourly rate of $125. The skills in food safety, quality management, and leadership development are in demand across the food industry. While the specific skills like Haccp, Spc, and Brc are specialized, the broader categories of food safety and quality management are widely applicable. Considering the location in Aurora, Illinois, and the absence of specific industry or seniority indicators, this rate is a conservative estimate. It's lower than the $450 estimated for a mediator/arbitrator with a similar background, but higher than the average rate for entry-level professionals in similar fields.
