Hi all,
I'm in northern NJ and was hoping to find other VA's that I could connect with and learn from. Besides being new to the va industry I'm a stay at home mommy of 2 little guys ages 5 and 8 whom I love spending time with! Although I admit right now when I'm not spending time with my family I'm on the computer learning how to become the best virtual assistant I possibly can...hope to here from you NJ va's soon!!

Hi there

I'm not in NJ but wanted to share a link with you to the New Jersey Virtual Assistant group here on VAF. You'll find plenty of local VAs networking there!

Looks like we may have enough people interested in a Northern NJ meetup, perhaps? I am in NW NJ (near Rockaway), so driving to Fairfield isn't that far of a trip for me. In fact, I grew up in that area (had family that lived in Totowa) and lived in Clifton for years. Willowbrook Mall was my home away from home too!

I have been in business for over 2 years now and love it. Maybe we can try to coordinate a NJ VA meetup, or we can plan to meetup one day too. Does Calandra's bakery have seats?

D.,
I'd love to meet up with you...Calandra's doesn't have seats but there's always the food court at willowbrook? You and I could meet up any time you're free just let me know. You're always welcome to give me a call or text, texting is like my life lol my biggest source of communication when it's not for business that is. You can also send me an email if it's easier for you. I look forward to hearing from you very soon!!!
