About Me.
|
My husband says "You're not a woman, you're Andrea."
It makes me laugh, but I understand what he means. I'm not a fan of shopping. I'm not into designer purses, shoes, or jewelry. If I have to go out of the house I'll begrudgingly put on some makeup (well, some eyeliner) and haphazardly run a comb through my hair. I don't need a big house or fancy car. The only thing I like to spend money on is food or kitchen gadgets. I like football, have been a screaming fan in the audience for some old-time wrestling, love to sit quietly and fish, and my favorite part of the county fair is the demolition derby. I'm just me. EDUCATION
I graduated from Western Michigan University with a degree in English. It took me twice as long as everyone else to get that degree and I proudly hang it on my office wall in a dollar store frame. I got my degree because I loved to read and write. Not because I was going to "become" any particular kind of worker. Especially a virtual assistant! EXPERIENCE
My first job was working as a bagger for Kroger during high school. That was when you had to count returnables by hand and there was no option for "plastic." Just paper. All of my work experience makes me great at helping others in their own business ventures. I've done just about everything: Cashier, Customer Service, Route Accountant, Remote Encoder for the Post Office, Project Administrator, Admin Assistant, Server, Software Instructor, Answering Service Message Recording... to name a few. And of course, for the past 15 years I've been a virtual assistant to around 100 different business owners. So you know I'm real and have an actual background, here's my LinkedIn profile. WHY I WANT TO HELP YOU
Everything I've done has made me quite exceptional at helping my clients. I have some crazy knowledge going on in my head and I want to make sure that I can share it with people who need help getting organized. Whether it's choosing the right software, documenting procedures, hiring team members, or just being someone you can bounce ideas around with - I'm here for you. |
