I have always wanted to start my own business and take my destiny into my own hands. I was thrilled when my mother (and now business partner) called to ask what I thought about starting a business together.

We reviewed our options and decided to become a part of a franchise opportunity. Looking at our combined years of experience we settled upon Cybertary (the first virtual assistant franchise in the country). It was the perfect fit. 

Cybertary puts to use all of our many talents: accounting, marketing, computer technology, social media, image branding, customer service, hospitality, executive assistance and so much more. Together with our team, we help companies and other entrepreneurs organize and grow their businesses.

My goal is to help companies (no matter the size) grow and be profitable. I also desire to help business leaders identify, understand and work effectively with their target audience. By helping others be successful, I in turn will also be successful.
