What is your instagram handle?
@smsergeant
How long have you been a Boston Business Women’s Member?
Less than a year
Were you born and raised in Boston? If not, what brought you here?
More or less. I was born in Framingham and ended up out here after I met my boyfriend.
Tell us more about your job or company and what led you to your career?
I launched my Virtual Admin business in September 2017. I currently run it as a part-time/side gig, in addition to working a regular 9-5 office job.
What would your clients say about you and your company?
I'm still working on building a book of business, but so far I think they would say that I am responsive and friendly and willing to go above and beyond to make things happen.
What is the best advice you’ve ever received?
You'll never be ready so just start.
What’s your favorite book?
I really enjoyed Permission to Screw Up: How I Learned to Lead by Doing (Almost) Everything Wrong by Kristen Hadeed.
What’s your secret weapon?
I live and die by my Outlook calendar and Hubspot for my current CRM. Without them I'd be lost.
What advice would you give to your younger self?
Be less afraid.
What is something that not many people know about you?
My newest hobby of sorts is bullet journaling and I love it. It's another thing to keep me organized.
