I wanted to address the most common question I get asked since starting my business…

“What is a virtual assistant and what do you do?”

I started my virtual assistant (VA) business as a side gig in 2014 and quit my city corporate job as an executive assistant in 2018. I now operate my business almost full-time from my home in the country. You can read my personal story here.
