What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values efficiency and offers growth opportunities.

I am a detail-oriented Virtual Assistant with a strong background in administrative support, email and calendar management, and client relations. My experience includes providing virtual administrative support at Travelstopng, where I managed email correspondence, scheduled appointments, and coordinated travel arrangements for clients. I pride myself on my ability to handle multiple tasks efficiently while maintaining high standards of service delivery.

In my previous role as a Sales/Logistics Coordinator at Thewhitebox Logistics, I managed logistics operations and prepared performance reports to identify areas for improvement. My internship at the Ministry of Environment and Forestry allowed me to conduct environmental assessments and collaborate on group projects, further enhancing my teamwork skills. I am committed to optimizing workflow and enhancing team productivity through effective organization and problem-solving.
