ISABELLA ARMOUR

Hi there, I'm Isabella (they/she)! I am a queer, non-binary person and I love cats, plants, and reading books in a lawn chair in my front yard. I have lived in Minnesota for my entire life and growing up I always had a passion for science.

When I went to college, I decided to get a degree in Biology and I absolutely loved my studies. What I didn't love so much were the post-graduation job prospects. I worked in academic science for the whole time I was an undergraduate student, created my own research projects, got published in scientific journals, but then I decided I didn't want to go to graduate school. I thought working in industry might be a better fit for me, so I got a corporate job.

I didn't even last a year in that position before I quit because of a combination of covid trauma, loss of a family member, and a whole lot of intense introspection. I realized that I didn't want to spend my whole life with other people calling the shots. I wanted to be completely in control of my career, my income, and most importantly, my time.

When I discovered the VA industry, it felt like the whole world opened up. Suddenly I was able to have a job where I had the freedom I wanted. I finally got to choose my own hours, prices, services, and coworkers. I am beyond grateful to have stumbled upon this online business life path and I am so happy you have too!
