My Story
Where it all began
My household welcomed its first computer when I was at the ripe age of 5, so embracing this digital age comes with ease.
+15 years of experience
I have over 15 years of expertise from working with companies like lululemon, Capstone Mining Corp, Anthem Properties and Western Union Business Solutions. With my background in executive-level administrative assistance, digital marketing and customer service, I seek to up-level customer experience with each transaction. I love what I do because it's FUN and the people that I work with inspire me to think bigger and smarter. I’m passionate about using technology business tools, love supporting process and improving workflows. My attitude is, “If I don’t know it, I can learn it.”

So why work with me?
I understand what it means to work remotely while still enjoying the camaraderie of a team-based business. This is my dream and I want to make yours come true, too. I'm on a mission to deliver real tangible value with my services, to help you conquer your goals and increase profits and productivity.
Where can you find me?
I'm currently based in Victoria, BC, Canada (Pacific Standard Time). I am working on becoming a proud member of The 7 Continents Club in order to support my overindulgent pizza and ice cream addictions. Catch me enjoying a hearty feast with my small multi-cultured family, enjoying a generous glass of red with my tribe, or meditating and journaling on the beach. There are no dull moments.
