Meet the Founders

Samantha Shaw, Co-founder of Assist-her, Canadian virtual assistant agency

Since making the big move to the West Coast, Sam lives + breathes adventure and lives life to its fullest.

Throughout her various positions within the health and wellness industry after graduating with a degree in Kinesiology, it occurred to Sam that she could combine her passion of helping others with her knack for marketing and administration. Pairing her expertise with Paige's, the sisters created Assist-her and used their creativity and motivation to grow the business into a thriving virtual assistant agency.

Sam absolutely loves getting to meet both business owners and virtual assistants from across the globe, and she (genuinely) can't wait to introduce you to your next team member.

After graduating with a bachelors in Business and Marketing, she knew that it was time to get back into the entrepreneurial world - and what better way to do it than with your sister (we're not even being sarcastic)?!

While you won't see her face around Assist-her (she is busy running her Real Estate and Staging businesses while chasing two beautiful kiddos around), you can catch her and Sam brainstorming and reading each others minds.
