Role context and purpose
- Background: I am working out of a home-office currently, and need someone to support me in various aspects of my official and personal life. I do have an assistant in India who manages most of my meetings (physical, video, phone) and India-based coordination, travel, and liaising.

I plan to have a proper office by September 2017, where the assistant can then work out of.
