"When
people ask me, as an archaeologist who works beneath the sea, if
I've ever found treasure, I answer, not beneath the waves, but yes,
in one exceptional virtual assistant."

Hello, I'm Kathy Smith, and I'm extremely passionate and enthusiastic
about maritime archaeology, deep-sea diving, marine technology,

can help with tasks such as:
- email
and voice mail management
-
travel coordination
-
speaking coordination
-
newsletter/ezine coordination
-
website maintenance
-
social media assistance
-
project management

writing/editing assistance (books, articles, website copy, bios,
media kits, press releases, blog posts, tweets, etc.) View
my portfolio here. Also
see my writing page here.
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!
