I knew that working
with a VA could do great things for my business and
life, but Sandra has thoroughly exceeded my expectations.
She has a remarkable ability to not only quickly grasp
the bigger picture of a request, but to go beyond that
to knowing me as a business owner--to the point of being
able to actually predict my needs and anticipate how to
support me before I even know what I need!
Something as simple as checking email for me, unasked,
when I was overloaded takes an awareness and insight
that not everyone has. Her care and support--sometimes
even before I am aware of my own need--could be
described as predictive and proactive. I trust her to
make decisions based on her intelligence and experience,
and then turn those into actions that reflect my own approach to decision-making and
response. Even when I was unexpectedly hospitalized and
unable to be in touch, she acted on my behalf to keep
things moving in my absence.
While there are multiple approaches to what is called
"virtual assistance," Sandra's is the one you want.

Having Sandra assist my business is a
tremendous help. She has lightened my work load by doing
the things that slow me down, and she does those tasks
much faster than I could. She provides good insight on
details that I sometimes overlook. Sandra handles
everything in a timely and professional manner, always
representing me well to customers and others. I look
forward to having her assist me in the future—doing
the things she does best and allowing me to do the
things I do best.

If you're looking for a partner to
provide administrative, creative or technical services,
Sandra can do it—and she always does it well. The best
thing about Sandra is she's not afraid to take on a new
task or be given a novel problem and figure out how to
solve it, on-time and within budget. She can often be
found one step ahead of you—always right where you want
to be.

Sandra and I worked together at the
grassroots non-profit, Practical Farmers of Iowa, for
several years. She was responsible for a myriad of
operations and planning duties...and she excelled at
each and every one of them. From designing office filing
and database systems to brainstorming creative solutions
to various communication and design challenges, she can
without exaggeration be said to "do it all," and do it
all well. She's a great writer and has a great eye for
layout—a combination some say is impossible to find in
one person. She works efficiently and brings every
project in under deadline. She is a great listener,
sensitive to what you want, yet not afraid to
communicate areas of potential improvement.
Sandra is exceptionally good to
work with: articulate, well-organized, self-starting,
and dedicated beyond compare.
