Whether you're onboard ship, diving the depths, mustering an expedition, coordinating your next TV appearance, or writing your next book, you can count on me to be at your side - virtually speaking, that is!

Let me ask...when you get the call to go into the field...

do you worry you'll be leaving myriad of business-related tasks behind?

do you cringe at the thought of returning to a buried email inbox and waiting phone messages?

do you wish someone could be coordinating the next field or writing project while you're away, doing what you love?

Then you need my help!

And I'm standing by right now...

Kathy Smith, Maritime VA Hello, I'm Kathy Smith, and I am extremely passionate and enthusiastic about maritime archaeology, deep-sea diving, and marine technology, which leads me to this endeavor: to assist people working in these fields.

With over 20 years onsite office experience, 10 years as a virtual assistant, and 19 years writing experience, I can help with tasks such as email and voice mail management, travel coordination, website maintenance, books, articles, promotional materials, project management, expedition assistance and more.

I can assist both individuals working in the maritime field as well as maritime-related organizations. I am known to be caring, honest, trustworthy, diligent, pro-active, respectful, capable and resourceful. And my cheery sense of humor is always sprinkled in for good measure!

My latest accomplishment...

I copy-edited the manuscript of this book, ensured it met with the publisher's specific criteria for manuscript format and copy requirements, and helped keep the project on deadline. Nuclear Dawn: The Atomic Bomb from the Manhattan Project to the Cold War (released Fall 2009)

"The review and editing of my assistant, Kathy Smith, once again made the task of writing easier. I owe her my usual debt of gratitude."

The possibilities are endless!
