Your Personal Girl Friday
Aug 2014 - Feb 2020OwnerThe Urban Dictionary defines a Girl Friday as: "A 'go to' girl; a female who will help you get things taken care of; a female you can rely on when you are in need of extra assistance; a female who acts as a 'jack of all trades' and is capable of doing almost anything; a girl you can count on when you are overwhelmed with your own chores and the duties must be done; a girl who does most of the leg work on a project, but never takes (or gets) credit. " After being in the corporate world for over 30 years I understand what it is like to try to get the day to day TO-DO list tasks complete. How many times did I say to myself that I just need a personal assistant or a Girl Friday to help me out for a few hours. It seemed that I never had enough time to return that item to Target or pick up the dry cleaning. It is my goal to help you get those day to day TO-DO list items accomplished without the extra stress. As a busy professional putting in lot of hours at work or even a stay at home parent that just needs an extra hand, I am here to assist you. Let me wait in line for you, let me pick up those few stray items. You have enough to do. Show less
