I founded one of the first Virtual Assistant companies 15 years ago and we’ve steadily grown to the largest in the US.

A Virtual Assistant is a more flexible take on the traditional employee.

The most effective leaders in 2023 will outsource anything that they don't love doing. By hiring a Virtual Assistant, you can find someone who loves doing what you don’t love doing at a fraction of the cost of doing it in-house. It will take some management, but the ROI is real.

Hiring a Virtual Assistant is a different approach to hiring a regular employee. While it's becoming a popular hack to hire a Virtual Assistant, I always enjoy educating business owners on podcasts on how to best utilize their Virtual Assistants. It's a privilege to support thousands of business owners to help them increase efficiency and give them back their time. 

Currently, I serve on the Kaiser University IMC Department Advisory Board and the Board of Directors of STEMSteps, a private early childhood STEM school. I also co-host the "Not Your Average CEO" with Virtual Assist USA's COO and Operations Manager. I have also volunteered as a committee member and volunteer for various charities including the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, Animal Friends, and Beverly's Birthdays.
