Meet the Team.

Founder, Braden Yuill, has proven to be an exceptional entrepreneur, reinventing the manner in which people view the structure behind businesses. Standing behind the belief that there is no “one size fits all” business model, Braden has applied his personal experiences to assisting others in finding new, productive ways to run their organizations.

With costs of employment continuing to rise, Braden went in search of ascertaining a more cost-effective way of keeping his enterprises successfully running without compromising the quality of work. After outsourcing assistance to the Philippines for his own companies, Braden was compelled to evince his findings with fellow entrepreneurs. Hence, the establishment of Virtual Coworker.

Country Manager for the US and Chief Spiritual Officer, Kara is a former professional dancer, a creative specialist, and business development consultant.

This link is also established between Sales Management and each Client’s business needs, hiring requirements, and expectations+goals which ensures a seamless and exciting hiring experience with the Virtual Coworker Team.

In her spare time, Kara enjoys gardening, painting, graphic design, and all the snacks... please feed her often to win her undying love.
