Sue Rich

General Virtual Assistant

Sue Rich has been managing data and people all her life! After 10 years as paralegal and office manager specializing in real estate law, she went on to support her husband’s auction business focused on lots of customer contact, extensive record keeping, and managing the finances and employees.

Her love of animals then brought her to become the personal assistant of the Founder of Pegasus Foundation, expanding her administrative and management skills yet again, adding research, managing properties and contractors. She also worked with Cape Wildlife in planning their fashion show fundraising events.

Several years later, she moved on to become the Programs Director at the Pegasus Foundation, reviewing grant applications, researching and recommending potential grantees, following up with grantees on program progress, reviewing program final reports; performing all bookkeeping services; preparing quarterly and annual financial reports for trustees; preparing annual report on programs for trustees.

In that role she worked closely with accountants, attorneys and trustees, was in charge of updating the website, created brochures, and represented Pegasus Foundation at animal welfare conferences.

Sue received her Grant writing Certificate of the American Grant Academy in 2013. Shortly after that she came into contact with Erica Waasdorp of A Direct Solution, who asked her to join as a virtual assistant, utilizing her grant writing skills and management experience.

Sue has lived in Massachusetts all her life and she’s been a Cape Codder since 1986. She lives with her husband Rob in Yarmouth Port and there’s always at least one animal in their life, if not more!
