About Us imageAbout Us imageAbout Us image
Welcome to my website! I'm Lisa Assetta, the Founder and CEO of Office Assistance Plus
and the Creator of Tampa’s #1 CANcer Life Organizing™ consulting business. 

My special mission: 

I created CANcer Life Organizing™ with the idea to bring the (non-medical) systems I use to keep myself organized and moving forward in life and business during and post cancer treatment for three cancers to help others going through it.

I put lots of passion and careful thought into all I do. My hope is that you will be inspired and empowered from what I have to offer.

My mantra is "the best way out is always through." If I CAN do it, you CAN too!

My journey:  

I'm a former career executive assistant with 20+ years supporting CEOs and executives in the C-Suite for large organizations in the Tampa Bay area.

I'm a professional speaker, published writer, and cancer awareness and survivor advocate.

My story has been published in the book Living Beyond “What If?” and I am featured in VoyageTampa as a local hidden gem.

I was honored as the Local Business Person of the Year in Carrollwood, Tampa, Florida in 2022 and 2023 by Alignable, the largest online referral network for small businesses.

I'm a proud board member for the Maple Tree Cancer Alliance Tampa Regional Advisory Board, a non-profit that helps cancer patients improve their quality of life through exercise.

Thank you for visiting my website. Book a FREE virtual consultation with me today, I can't wait to meet you! I'm standing by ready to help you get organized during cancer treatment and beyond.

Please subscribe to my mailing list and follow me on social media too!
Thank you for your support. ♥
