Do you need a Virtual Assistant, or Desktop Publisher?
Are you in need of a Virtual Assistant to help you with your work flow?
I can help you with your PowerPoint presentations—whether you need a template designed—or the presentation laid out and formatted correctly. I can also assist you with editing, formatting, proofreading, and so on of Word documents. I'm also fairly strong in Excel, and can assist you with formatting, charts, formulas, and several other Excel spreadsheet tasks. If you need help with organizational charts, or the like...I'm a whiz with Microsoft Visio. I'm also very good at finding the lowest airfares on the market, and setting up your car and hotel needs.

Or maybe you're in need of more than a Virtual Assistant, a Desktop Publisher?
Someone more creative, but not quite a Graphic Designer? I'm also a Desktop Publisher and can help you by creating business forms, print and online ads, brochure type websites, PowerPoint design templates that match your brand/logo. I can even help you with Training Manuals, or make your documents look professional, and again match your brand/logo. If you don't yet have a brand/logo, business letterhead, or the like—I can help you there as well.
If you'd like references feel free to read the testimonials on my profile. I'm quite sure you'll be pleased.

Do you need a Business Form created, or designed?
Are you in need of business forms? Or do you find you only have copies that are faded, and not fresh originals?
I can design, or re-design your business forms for you. I even create/design them in Microsoft Word so you can use and print them on your own printer whenever you see fit. No more waiting for the local print shop to get them to you, or last minute orders to worry about. Just click, open, and print.
I can also create/design those same forms as fillable online forms.

I had it ready for him in 1 hour. Then the client requested that I turn their presentation into the actual template, and that took me about 2 hours. They were very pleased with the quick turn-around time and the template. They have now asked that I show them how to use the template.
