I am Beth Rice, an administrative assistant with more than 15 years of education and experience. Throughout my career, I have held a number of administrative service positions in the for-profit and not-for-profit industries. I have worked as a direct assistant to CEOs, a town manager, and have supported teams of staff. (my resume) I have also held positions in education, retail, and the medical fields.
I have a well-equipped office, in my home, fully stocked and with the latest equipment and software. My Windows XP computer is well maintained and is connected to a constant dsl connection, a color printer, and a flatbed document scanner. My office is also stocked with a second scanner (for printed images, film negatives, and slides) a fax machine and an electric typewriter for those jobs that are just more professionally accomplished the old-fashioned way. I have the knowledge, and a huge databank of resources, to complete any task in record time.
I can provide documents in most any format commonly used in today's offices. I have antivirus and firewall software, so you can be assured that any data transmitted over the Internet, or by disk, is safe and secure.
I am familiar with the commercial printing process and have an established list of service providers to best meet the needs of the individual client. I can also work with your established contacts.
My Internet knowledge is extensive. When creating information for the web I use multiple coding methods for the best output results. I also use a combination of browsers to confirm appearance for the large majority of end users.
I am not "just a person with a computer and a printer who doesn't want to fight the morning drive." I truly enjoy all aspects of administrative work. I have pride in everything I create and my goal is to use my skills to make you and your business shine.
I am also not a mother with young children under-foot while I'm working. When you contract with me for an hour of work - you will receive a full hour of work.
