Tess T. Ruiz

Hello I am Tess. I have more than 30 years experience in administrative and support roles for medium-size businesses and large multinational corporations. A varied professional career in administrative support, merchandising, import/export, logistics and procurement has strengthened my competencies in planning and organization, relationship building and effective oral/written communication.

My jobs gave me opportunities to attend trainings and seminars to enhance my skills in contract management, strategic planning, time management and business correspondence. In between those times, I co-managed with my husband our handicraft export business to France and Italy and also took up a short course in medical transcription several years back.

I earned my Bachelors Degree in Business Administration major in Marketing from the Lyceum of the Philippines with an office management minor.

I retired from the corporate world last year to venture in an agriculture business with my husband but due to a sad family episode, the plan was reconsidered. This led me to a path to consider a home-based career. This fits my goal to put into gainful use my wealth of corporate work experience and my competencies as a virtual assistant with business owners in the agriculture industry as my niche.
