Multi-Award Winning Bookkeeper!

Owner and operating of OffAssist Candy Beauchamp brings with her an extensive background of bookkeeping for small to mid-sized business.  Candy grew up near Charleston, SC and spent several years in Honolulu, HI before moving to Austin, TX in 1998.  OffAssist began as a concept in 1999 and officially opened its doors a couple of years later in 2002.  In Candy’s spare time she enjoys reading and spending time with her two children.  Candy credits her success to her amazing family and friends, who have stood by her while growing OffAssist into what it is today.  Candy served on the Board of Directors of the International Virtual Assistants Association from 2005 to 2008 in a variety of roles: Historian, Vice-President and President.

Candy has earned some extra brag rights of late, she is the recipient of the The 2008 VAccolade Business Entrepreneur of the Year Award.  She is also featured on the VAnetworking blog and Virtual Rave.

Good on you Candy!  Keep up the good work.
