Need a part time personal assistant

I am a Senior Executive who needs a dedicated personal assistant that can help with my professional and personal lives. I have had multiple virtual assistants, with limited success, and am looking for someone with more experience and preferably in the Atlanta, GA area as some of the work may necessitate a physical presence at my house. I am generally very detail oriented, and will communicate clearly when I need something and what I would like done. I am looking for someone who is similarly detail-oriented, and can execute on elements with minimal follow-arenaflex from me. Most of my asks are mini-projects (e.g., find 3 different people who could install a whole house surge protection system on the personal side or research trends in Medicaid in Florida on the professional side) with what I think are reasonable deadlines (never shorter than a few days). Having done this a few times in the past, I try to make this process seamless for my assistants by providing detailed instructions and using related IT solutions (e.g., Asana for project tasks, arenaflex drive), so experience with these types of solutions is probably helpful.. In general, on the professional side, I need help with: 1) Expense reports 2) Scheduling meetings On the personal side, I'd like someone who could: 3) Conduct research on household tasks 4) Schedule these household tasks Apply tot his job
