Empowering your business to grow, thrive, and make a lasting impact.

How It All Began

Velia’s Virtual Solutions was born from both necessity and ambition.

Originally from New York, I faced countless rejections for roles where I was more than qualified. Rather than let those setbacks define me, I turned them into fuel. Inspired to create something of my own, I began freelancing on TaskRabbit—an early step that led to the launch of Velia’s in 2017.

What started as a one-woman operation has grown into a business dedicated to helping companies bring structure to their operations and move forward with clarity and confidence.

Welcome to Velia’s Virtual Solutions

I’m Tashalee, the Founder of Velia’s Virtual Solutions.

I partner with business owners and organizations to provide strategic, hands-on support that helps streamline operations, strengthen internal processes, and create space for sustainable growth. The goal is simple: to remove the barriers that keep your business stuck in reactive cycles and replace them with systems that support how you actually work.

Our Commitment to You

At Velia’s Virtual Solutions, I believe support should go beyond task completion—it should create real, lasting impact.

Whether it’s streamlining operations, improving workflows, or giving you back valuable time, my approach is rooted in partnership. Every solution is designed to align with your business, your goals, and the way you operate day to day.

This isn’t just about getting things done—it’s about helping your business function better as a whole.

Our Commitment to Growth & Excellence

I believe in practicing what I implement—investing in systems, support, and continued learning that drive measurable results.

In 2025, I was honored to be selected for the SHEBA Spring Cohort Competition, a program designed to support visionary business owners through mentorship, pitch development, and strategic growth planning. This experience further strengthened my commitment to delivering thoughtful, structured, and impactful support to every client I work with.

I also maintain certifications from leading platforms and programs that align with the way I support and operate within businesses.

Our Milestones & Achievements

Since launching Velia’s Virtual Solutions, the business has evolved from a solo operation into a growing support system for businesses navigating day-to-day operations.

I’m proud to be certified as a Minority/Woman-Owned Business Enterprise (M/WBE) in Connecticut.

My work has been recognized and featured across multiple platforms, including the Hartford Chamber of Commerce, Collabs.io Mag, Subkit, and most recently, Influential Women, where I shared insights on building structure, systems, and sustainable operations.

In 2022, I was also honored to be recognized as a Woman of Empowerment by P.O.W.E.R.

These milestones reflect not just growth, but a continued commitment to helping businesses operate with clarity, consistency, and confidence.
