Office Services

 

I offer a variety of simple administrative services: coaching, facilitating, office administration, bookkeeping, technical/computer support and training, organizing and more.

 

Below are some examples of the types of clients I work with and the different ways I help them.  I bring enthusiasm and focus to my work, leaving my clients energized about theirs.  I work part-time and am happy to come in once to get you going, or to work with you on an ongoing basis for several hours to a couple of days a week.  My fees are very reasonable.  If you or someone you know could use my services, please contact me.
