I’m Micah, an SLP in the PNW that works as a resource creator and virtual assistant. I’ve been an SLP since 2012 and a TPT VA since 2019. I’ve lived in central Illinois, Austin, Phoenix, Chicago, the Oregon coast, Yellowstone National Park, central Indiana, and Portland. I now call central Oregon home with my husband Steven. I’m an extroverted introvert that loves sunshine, dogs, mountains, dogs, camping, hiking, dogs, baking, dogs, reading, Ted Lasso, crossword puzzles, spending time with my friends and family, and… hmm, dogs.

When I was a full-time SLP… well frankly, I cried a lot. I started looking for a “side hustle” (as the kids say), and a friend just so happened to ask me to help her with her TPT store. After she showed me the ropes, I became a TPT VA in early 2019 and was able to worm my way out of traditional SLP work only one year later! I now work from home and have complete flexibility over my schedule and am so happy I made the switch.

In my professional life as a VA, I specialize in converting resources to digital for other TPT SLP sellers using interactive PDFs, Boom Cards™, and/or Google Slides™. I also work on my own TPT and Boom Learning™ stores. And now I have this bebe blog! I started this website because I totally understand the ins and out of how being a SLP can affect our mental health, and if you’re interested in becoming a VA, I want to help you with a possible exit strategy.

So, stick around if you want to learn about quality and effective SLP resources and/or how to become a TPT VA. Either way, I can help you!
