A Summary of Who I Am & How I Can Help
After early retirement from the Federal government, I took my 30+ years of work experience, skills and knowledge and turned it into freelance work as a Virtual Assistant (VA) where I could focus on helping others with their own business ventures, projects and creative work.

CeTA's Online Services
What's A Virtual Assistant (VA)?
We are entrepreneurs – also referred to as freelancers or contractors – who work remotely as either solopreneurs like myself or with a team.
A VA offers online services which can vary from general administrative tasks or duties of a more specific nature (such as editing, digital transcriptions, or desktop publishing). Some will specialize even further by offering, for example, author services or social media services.
Tasks can either be carried out on a regular basis (such as managing your website's content, or screening e-mails), or on short or long-term projects (like assisting an Event Organizer with organizing a conference or a training workshop).
How fees are charged will also vary. A VA can charge on an hourly basis, or per word, or obtain a retainer, or offer a package deal. Some VAs, like myself, offer all four choices.
