Hi! I am Ren Palaganas, graduated from De La Salle University as a city and university scholar and a Professional Civil Service Eligible. Having a degree in Psychology made me skilled at working with people with different personalities. I enjoy learning new things and learning from others.
Before I started virtual assistance, I was an assistant teacher in a Public Special Education Center. I enjoyed working with a team of teachers, therapists, and faculty. I also love doing tasks that require creativity. As a side hustle, I sell cleaning and hygiene products online. After my volunteering work, I tried to apply as an online teacher for kids but I had the opportunity to work as a virtual assistant.
In my first 2 years of working as a general virtual assistant, I did HR tasks including screening, interviews, timekeeping, payroll, and employee relations. I stepped up and did the marketing for our team. I took online courses and am now a certified social media manager and graphic designer. I am a Canva Pro user as I started freelancing. I focus on social media marketing in the mental health/psychology niche.
During the pandemic, I work as a volunteer in a non-profit organization as mental health support helping people cope with stress and anxiety through teleconsultation. I am also currently working as a personal assistant for an adult with ADHD who is a medical student helping her with organization and planning. I help her get assignments and projects done especially when it is psychology-related research. I am also working as a content creator for an Instagram account of a trauma abuse facilitator. I also had experience working with a child and relationship therapist as a personal email handler, Facebook marketer, and email newsletter writer.
