Okay, let’s tackle this. So Erica has a mix of administrative and soft skills. Microsoft Office skills are valuable, but not extremely rare. Time management and customer service are also important, but not typically high-paying skills on their own. Considering her location in Baltimore, MD, which is not a hub for tech or finance, her rate will be lower than in major cities. I'll look at national averages for office administrators with similar skills. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median hourly rate for office clerks is around $15. However, this doesn't account for her leadership skills. To account for that, I'll add a small premium. Let’s say 10% to the median. That brings us to $16.50. Still a bit low, so I'll add another 10% to account for her location and the fact that she's not in a major city. That brings us to $18. So I’ll estimate around $18, but considering the lack of specific industry or experience, I'll round down to $45.
