Hi, I’m Evelyn Maina

My Transcription & Virtual Assistance Journey

I began my career in accounting. But after working in an environment that didn’t align with my values, I knew I needed a change.

During that transition, a friend suggested I try transcription as a temporary option. I gave it a shot—and to my surprise, discovered a genuine interest in capturing the spoken word accurately and clearly. What started as a short-term solution in 2016 gradually grew into a full-time career.

Since then, I’ve:

• Transcribed over 155,000 minutes across 4,000+ files
• Worked with respected organizations like BibleProject, The Gospel Coalition, and Lions Club International
• Gained a strong ability to handle diverse accents and subject matter
• Built a reputation for clean, publication-ready transcripts
• Helped podcasters, researchers, and businesses repurpose content efficiently

Alongside transcription, I began offering virtual assistant services to help my clients with day-to-day operations—and that side of my work quickly grew.

Now, I also:

• Manage calendars, inboxes, and cloud systems
• Support content creators with YouTube and podcast uploads, timestamps, and summaries
• Handle data entry, bookkeeping, and online research
• Format and publish blogs, newsletters, and social media content
• Create simple visuals and manage listings for rentals or jobs
