One thing I’m learning as I begin my journey as a Virtual Assistant is that there’s always something new to learn.
Starting out can feel exciting, but it can also be overwhelming when you’re trying to build your skills, find clients, and figure out how freelancing works.
So, I’d love to learn from those who have walked this path before me.
Experienced VAs, what’s ONE thing you wish you knew when you were just starting out?
It could be about finding your first client, setting your rates, building your portfolio, or navigating freelance platforms like Contra.
Your advice might be exactly what another beginner needs to hear today. And if you’re a fellow beginner, feel free to share what you’re learning, too!
I'm now available for freelance work as a Web Designer (UI)!

What I can help you with:
Website and landing page UI design
Responsive layouts (desktop and mobile)
Visual identity and logo design
Redesigns of existing pages
If you're a startup, a small business or a creator looking to level up your online presence, let's talk.
Hi, I’m a designer with 7+ years of experience. As a Top Rated Seller on Fiverr, I’ve completed over 3,500 projects for clients around the world.
Now I’m bringing my experience to Contra!
My team and I create Canva and Figma design systems, social media content, brand identities, and AI images and videos. We help businesses look consistent and make everyday content creation easier.
It’s been a minute since my last post here on Contra.
While my main focus usually lives in photo editing and digital design, I was digging through the archive recently and thought it’d be fun to share a couple of branding projects from the past:
Slide 2: Choku Ladies Boutique identity and mockups (2 years ago)
Brand identity isn't my everyday lane, but tackling projects like these taught me a lot about visual consistency across different mediums. I’d love to hear your thoughts or see any feedback from fellow designers. Great to connect with the community again.
