Prefer to work remotely
I am Jo-Ann, a woman who proudly and successfully wears many hats
VIRTUAL ASSISTANT
- As a Business Assistant, I have extensive experience handling spreadsheet projects, writing and editing documents, calendaring, making travel arrangements, etc.
- As a Personal Assistant, I have extensive experience in all areas, from vetting workers for your home (e.g., plumbers) to making appointments to ordering items. Anything that you can't handle, I can.
MASTER RESEARCHER
- I excel at (and thoroughly enjoy) going down the rabbit hole as a researcher, sifting through all the information I can find on the topic at hand, and providing a comprehensive written review that will support your project, either in document or spreadsheet form.
MARKETING AND SOCIAL MEDIA
- Let me help you tell your story. I have extensive experience with updating, writing, and keeping my client's Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, and TikTok updated.
- I have experience with Canva and writing and editing copy for articles and blog posts.
HOME and BUSINESS ORGANIZER
- Respect, intuitive understanding, efficiency... these may not be the three things that you think of first when it comes to organizing, but I have learned over the years that these are the most important ways to best support you in your organizing goals
- Respect - I respect your home or business first and foremost. You have invited me into your personal space, and I never take that for granted.
- Intuitive understanding - When I come to your home or business, I take my time to look at what you want organized, and work with you to make a plan.
Efficiency—the greatest compliment I receive is when a client says to me, at the end of an organizing session, "I can't believe we accomplished so much!"
I bring an incredibly diverse work background to every project. I look
forward to discussing my experience and how I can support you in handling your short-term and/or long-term projects.
