Virtual Assistant for Hire

  • British Columbia
  • Save

Hello!

I’m so grateful for this opportunity to expand my portfolio and help people along the way.
Although I’ve never had the title of virtual assistant, I have spent the past years learning and perfecting various skills in order to be a successful virtual assistant.
Most of my computer and software skills come from my 4 year position as a administrative assistant. Since then I have taken on more challenging roles and education ventures in social work and law.

I encourage you to take a look at my education and experience, and reach out to see if we’d be a good fit for one another!
