Why would a college-educated professional with five years of experience in public relations be so excited about being a virtual executive assistant?

As a Seattle native and the child of a dot-com entrepreneur, technology and communication have been a central part of my life. In addition, my fiance and I have always wanted to live in Israel, as we have a lot of family here. However, in Israel, it is particularly difficult to make a living if you work for local companies here.

As an executive virtual assistant, I have the opportunity to use technology for global collaboration and to be able to make a living in a place I love.
