2012_nominee_vayearThis morning I was humbled by an email.  I was nominated by my peers for AssistU VA of the Year, an award which will be presented in September in Minneapolis, Minnesota at the AssistU Community Awards and Homecoming event. I read the email for a few times before I grasped it and sat in silent awe for a moment.  What can be more flattering than to be recognized by colleagues? I’m so grateful to anyone who thinks I’m worthy of such an award.

AssistU VAs  are professionals who have completed a rigorous 20-week training program and uphold a stringent Code of Ethics, providing business support services in a global, virtual environment. We are different from other Virtual Assistants because we focus on long-term partnerships with our clients. We stand for our clients through our own strict business standards, doing work only with clients who “fit” those standards, doing work we love, remaining vested in our clients’ successes, and constantly seeking and sharing new technologies and skills to better serve our clients and our AssistU community.

I’m humbled, privileged, and so appreciative to be a nominee; it is an honor that I do not take lightly.
