Not only is Pam a master of dance choreography, her use of subtle actions and gestures punctuate her theater productions.

A Note from Pam
The idea of becoming a virtual assistant for the performing arts industry developed organically after mentoring a dance studio owner from Australia whom I met through a LinkedIn dance teacher group. I love being able to use my skills and knowledge to help others succeed. As an entrepreneur, I enjoy the flexibility of working from home and having time for my other passions - horseback riding, gardening and educating people on natural health and wellness.
I'd love to hear from you!
