Here is my definition, and the way I work as a Virtual Assistant:
A Virtual Assistant is an independent business owner and highly-skilled and trained professional whose service is to partner with a small number of hand-selected clients in long-term, collaborative relationships by providing high-level, across-the-board operational, administrative, and personal support remotely.
Think of me as your right-hand person, an indispensable member of your team, your biggest fan and cheerleader, and the person you can absolutely trust to be on top of the details and to proactively anticipate your needs.
I genuinely care about my clients, am excited about their work, and am invested in their success. For me, it’s all about coming together in relationship and partnership to achieve the vision you have for yourself and for your work.
Doing the work you need, or helping to get it done

I do the work you need or help to get it done.
*Though I support clients in all of the areas below, and have advanced skills and expertise in many of them, my specialty is being your operational and administrative support partner, so depending on your unique needs in some of these areas, it may be smarter for you to hire a professional who specializes in a particular service. If I feel the level of expertise or skill you need in an area surpasses my own, I’ll let you know, and would be happy to share a referral or research and screen vendors for you.
Business Support
Make the difference you’re meant to make.
Live your purpose.
Let me take care of the operational and administrative details so you can focus on the income-generation and business-growth activities that only you can do.
Strategic Partnership
Strategy, brainstorming, thought, and implementation partner
Clients have told me they get so much more than they expected to from a VA when working with me.
I listen carefully, pay attention, and proactively contribute ideas, suggestions, and action plans to help you get from where you are to where you want to be.
Need help knowing how to implement something you’ve discussed with your coach or learned in a program?
Want to talk through something and brainstorm ideas?
Overwhelmed by all the email marketing and CRM systems out there and not sure which one’s right for your needs?
Want someone on your side who knows and understands you and your business, and can use that knowledge to point out things you might not be thinking of and ways that things could be done better?
I bring this and more to the table as your strategic partner.
