Let me introduce myself!

Let me Introduce Myself
As a business owner, I understand the demands and needs that exist in today’s business world. I have worked in many different work settings, from large Fortune 100 companies, to a small preschool environment. From my vast work experience, I have held different positions, and with them I have been able to enhance my administrative skills. Also becoming proficient in meeting/event planning, handling personnel items with the utmost confidentiality, working closely with upper management to handling customer service calls. My past experience of over 18+ years, allows me to service your needs with the utmost integrity and professionalism. How did I become a VA? I had the opportunity to work for a company based in California, but worked remotely as a Regional Administrative Assistant from my home office in IL. This experience allowed me to see hands-on what it would be like to work "virtually" for a client. It helped me to understand what is needed to be a proficient, organized VA and gave me the confidence I needed to pursue a career in the field of "Virtual Assistant". I enjoyed the independence and creativity that was handed to me and I loved the challenge.
