Hi, I’m Leslie Martinez
As a Fractional Operations Manager and efficiency expert, I untangle purpose-driven CEOs from their operations as they grow their team so they can experience more freedom, reach their potential, and fulfill their vision.
Over 30 years of corporate experience in several industries has honed my ability to look for solutions to inefficiencies that slow business growth. I love transforming chaos into order!
Integrity | Empathy
Making a Difference
Positivity | Freedom
My values are at the heart of my business.

My Professional Journey
Reflecting on my career, I was destined to become an Operations Manager.
The seeds were planted as a teenager while working at my father’s dental practice. Assisting his Office Manager at the front desk, I came to understand the importance of customer care.
I learned that organization and processes keep a business operating like a well-oiled machine.
After graduating with a B.A. in Business Administration, I worked in the energy industry for 10 years until working in a large company lost its appeal and I was ready for a change.
I love the challenge of learning a new field and new skills, so when an opportunity to become the Business Manager of my husband’s small manufacturing business opened, I was excited to manage business operations, create processes, and develop simple automations to improve efficiency.
After 7 years, I returned to work in corporate and gained Executive Assistant experience supporting C-Suite executives. I then spent 10 years in the Human Resources and received my PHR certification.
A New Chapter
In 2020, I decided to pivot out of corporate and start my business, LM Virtual Services.
My unique experience, skills, and values set me apart from others. I’m passionate about getting to know you and your business.
Building on this knowledge, I use my superpowers, organization, and process development to help you grow your business.
Up Close and Personal
Here are some of my favorite things!
Family is important to me. My husband and I enjoy spending time with our son, daughter-in-law, and grandson.
My favorite pastime is reading. I love a good mystery, and a series I particularly enjoy is “The No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency” by Alexander McCall Smith. While fiction is fun, I often enjoy reading a business/personal development book. One of my favorites is the classic “How to Win Friends and Influence People’ by Dale Carnegie.
To counteract the hours of computer sitting, I make time in my daily schedule for Jazzercise which incorporates aerobic dancing and strength training with music and fun. A win-win!
