As the owner of Cruz Law, Blyss's estate planning practice focuses on helping families enhance their lives today and secure their legacies for tomorrow. Blyss has lived in Alaska nearly all of her life and has spent the last fourteen years in Anchorage. During that time, she worked in special credits dealing with troubled loans and bank-owned properties at Northrim Bank while earning her MBA and raising two children with her husband. After leaving the banking industry, she went to work for nearly ten years at the Municipality of Anchorage as the manager of tax enforcement and delinquent court-ordered fine collection. During her time at the Municipality, she and her staff implemented two new tax programs: the Marijuana Retail Sales Tax and the Motor Fuel Excise Tax, which generate nearly $20 million in annual Municipal revenue.

In April 2015, I decided to make an entrepreneurial jump. I resigned from a fortune 50 company and became a full-time entrepreneur. I had spent years after Business School and later Law School helping entrepreneurs plan their growth, document their deals, minimize their risk, and maximize their chances of success. I loved my clients and enjoyed helping them build their dreams.
