Our Story
River City Virtual Assistants was founded by Katie Santoro in 2020 at the height of the global pandemic. Katie had been considering virtual assisting for years but wasn’t brave enough to do it until she had to close her physical yoga studio and determine a new path. She took her years of experience in the legal and insurance industry, blended it with her experience running a small business, and began assisting clients in a wide array of industries with everything from basic admin tasks, to marketing and website building.
Katie’s vision was to grow RCVA by adding others like herself who wanted to find work/life balance between household responsibilities and career aspirations. The team quickly grew to 8 members, and in 2022 Katie's friend and trusted colleague Meagan joined the team to help support the growth of the business. Working virtually allows the team at RCVA to take care of house and home while keeping their skills relevant and contributing financially to their families.
RCVA is dedicated to providing reliable, consistent, and intelligent assistance. Each assistant is college-educated and brings experience from diverse career backgrounds. RCVA is also committed to providing meaningful employment at a living wage to individuals within the USA.
