About Raymond L. Merkerson, III

As a Michigan native and lover of food, people and animals, I started Merkerson Household Management to help individuals enjoy life to the fullest.

I moved from Michigan to Washington DC to attend George Washington University where I earned my certification in Event Planning and Management.

My 20-year experience of hospitality services has included working at some of the most well-known international restaurants in the world.

In addition to my Hospitality and Event Management experience, I have an additional combined 20 years of expertise in office administration, logistics, vendor, property and client management.

I am now a 7-year Atlanta resident, where I live with my lovely wife and Wheaten Terrier. I love tennis, the outdoors, cooking, baking, traveling and great food.

Careful to client requests Not overwhelmed by work assignment. Willingness to correct any oversights. Attention to details

Raymond has been a tremendous help to us ever since he started working with us in 2020. He there on time every day and is very trustworthy. Raymond helps us in the kitchen early mornings and it's been a life saver! Very reliable, honest, punctual and communicative. Raymond can manage most any household management duties and I have no hesitation leaving the keys to my house with Raymond.

Raymond delivers high end service for affordable prices! I would recommend his services.

I live in the East Cobb area and needed to find someone to provide landscaping advice and a water drainage issue in my backyard. Mr. Merkerson responded immediately and arrived at the scheduled time. After providing different landscaping ideas that would address the drainage issues he proceed to locate a french drain that had been covered with debris and dirt. He cleared away the area to allow the water runoff to be diverted to the drain, alleviating the flooding in that area. I look forward to working with Mr. Merkerson for my future landscaping needs

What Past Colleagues Say

I had the privilege to work with Raymond for ~2 years while at a Regus location. Raymond is a terrific office manager, and his work ethic sets him apart. In addition to being very organized and professional, he's also the kind of person that won't blow you off if he doesn't know the answer to your question...he will find the answer & then get back to you. He'd be an incredible asset to any organization.

Raymond has the extraordinary ability to stay positive and see the big picture in the most trying of circumstances. He brings an uplifting presence to the office and empowers those around him to believe that they can accomplish any task set before them. This attitude is not something that can be taught - it has to be the absolute core of an individual and Raymond has the correct attitude and it allows him to be a gracious gentleman at all times.

I met Raymond before we started working at Agilest together. We hit it off immediately and I knew that he would be great to work with. His people skills are amazing and his ability to keep cool under pressure and deliver results in difficult situations is unrivaled with anyone else I have met. His organizational skills are quite good also. If you need someone to speak to act as the first line of contact with your company he is the guy you want, hands down. He has been an amazing person to work alongside and I look forward to the opportunity should it be presented.
