What I'm looking for

I seek a role that values efficiency, supports professional growth, and encourages collaboration.

I am a multilingual executive assistant with a proven track record in enhancing executive productivity and optimizing administrative processes. My experience spans various roles where I have successfully managed complex schedules, coordinated international travel, and provided high-level support in fast-paced environments. I am fluent in Portuguese and English, with conversational abilities in Spanish and Mandarin, which allows me to communicate effectively across diverse teams.

In my current role at McKinsey & Company, I have optimized executive efficiency by managing complex calendars and streamlining travel logistics. I take pride in enhancing financial accuracy and transparency by efficiently submitting and tracking expenses. My previous experience as a Translator and HR Knowledge Coordinator at Solvay further honed my skills in content creation and database management, while my role at Finpartner S.A. involved direct interaction with clients and legal documentation, showcasing my ability to handle sensitive information with discretion.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a commitment to fostering strong professional relationships and ensuring smooth onboarding processes for new employees. I am passionate about creating supportive work environments and am always looking for ways to improve operational efficiency.
