Ivonne Vazquez, Principal of VIVA-Virtually Indispensable Virtual Assistants, LLC announces Maine’s Spanish bi-lingual/bi-cultural Virtual Assistant business. 

A virtual assistant is an experienced Executive or Administrative professional providing business support services, by contract, from their own location using the internet, other technologies and computer applications.  Virtual Assistants (or VA’s) perform daily, general administrative tasks that are necessary for any business to function efficiently.  Outsourcing to a virtual assistant saves employers money as they can be retained at a fraction of the cost of a full-time employee.

Ms. Vazquez has more than 25 years experience in a variety of business settings including banking, small business, non-profit, import and international executive search.  In addition, Ms. Vazquez speaks Spanish as a first language and has a strong understanding of other languages and cultures.  

Originally from New York City, Ms. Vazquez is of Puerto Rican descent and has been living in Maine for the past 20 years.
