About

Hello, Chelsea Derco here, founder of the Optimized Influence Agency LLC, and I am happy to be your technical VA with specialty in performance of Chief of Operations duties. While I was in the US Air Force for four years, and hold a four year BA degree, it was actually the 15 years that followed that I specialized in operations and project management.

In 13 of those years I worked for four significantly large defense contractors, two of which were on the fortune 500 list, where I led teams of 10-20 personnel, conducted hiring/firing actions in close coordination with HR, wrote position descriptions when replacements were necessary, reviewed resumes, and conducted interviews.

zaMy current 9am-5pm project manager job, as I get my business up and running, is for a private organization that handles a lot of facility construction projects for a large campus. Here I have managed many cross-functional projects in areas of marketing strategy, website planning, data strategy, and also coordinated urban planning operations for a multi-phased large building construction project that will cost over $300M; to indicate the size of the task.
