About

Hi, I'm Erin! I have over 10 years of administrative assistance experience. I love to organize and create systems to simplify both my work and everyday life. I pride myself in paying great attention to detail, and have been told I have the patience of a saint. (What mom doesn't, am I right?)

I'm a born and raised Iowan. My husband and I have one son. We live on and operate my family's farm. This has shaped who I am immensely and I take great pride in being a caretaker of God's creation as well as my family's legacy. In my free time, you can find me outside in the garden, or diving into my next DIY project.

For the past 10 years, I have been working for an optometry office, handling administrative tasks such as scheduling, data entry, insurance verification and filing, invoicing, and organization of patient files. I also handled patient communication via phone and email, and the occasional social media post. With all of this, I have also completed HIPAA compliance training, ensuring that sensitive information is handled with the utmost care and professionalism. 

Over the years, I have learned that strong organization skills and attention to even the smallest details can make all the difference. I am so excited to see how I can help your small business THRIVE!

Why Simply Grounded? The name says it all. I believe that staying grounded—calm, focused, and present—is the key to supporting others with clarity and care. As a virtual assistant, I bring that steady energy into everything I do, helping business owners like you cut through the overwhelm, stay organized, and feel genuinely supported. When things get hectic, I'm here as a reliable, calming presence. I keep the details in order, the processes moving, and the stress levels low—so you can focus on growing your business with confidence.

Because when I stay grounded, you can move forward with ease.
