VIRTUAL ASSISTANT in need of work
by Deborah Silva 08 Aug '14

08 Aug '14

Hi everyone. I have advertised not long ago my need for any type of office work for a small business or anyone in need of an assistant who can do Microsoft office power points, excel spreadsheets, typing and transcribing as well as keeping an appointment schedule via Outlook. I will be house bound from Monday thru the spring 2015 due to numerous surgeries of my foot. I will be able to do these types of things without any problem from my home. I am very reasonably priced considering my 30+ years of experience, running the office for a City of Pgh elected official and the CEO/President of one of the city's largest non profits who traveled worldwide and sat on 22 boards at one time. Please contact me via email at deborah.silva1011(a)gmail.com or call after today at 412-600-2702. It can be on a steady basis Monday-Friday or a few days a week to once or twice a month. I can also do seminar/conference planning and fundraiser planning. Thank you. I hope we can do business together. Deborah
