What I'm looking for

I seek remote roles providing executive and operational support where I can streamline workflows, build automations, improve recruitment operations, and support leaders across time zones while maintaining discretion and measurable impact.

I am an Executive and Virtual Assistant with 4+ years supporting founders, executives, consultants, and international teams across operations, administration, and client support. I deliver measurable impact through inbox and calendar management, recruitment coordination, document preparation, CRM migrations, and automations that reduce manual work and improve accuracy.

I consistently meet KPIs and maintain high client satisfaction by managing high-volume workflows, producing error-free documentation, and coordinating cross-border operations with discretion and adaptability. I leverage tools like Notion, Google Workspace, Zapier, GoHighLevel, and AI assistants to streamline processes and free leaders to focus on strategy.
