What I'm looking for
I am a results-focused Administrative and Business Development Specialist with four years of experience in administrative support, sales, and project coordination. I consistently take initiative to streamline workflows and support senior management to achieve business goals.
My background includes managing executive calendars, coordinating meetings, preparing reports and high-level correspondence, and maintaining confidential records. I have overseen staff promotion processes and supported executive and board-level meetings.
On the sales side, I directed sales and business development functions, developed new sales techniques, managed key client relationships, and consistently exceeded weekly and monthly quotas. I have trained and led teams to improve customer service, increase revenue, and drive business growth.
I leverage a broad tech toolkit—including Trello, ClickUp, Monday.com, Asana, Zapier, Calendly, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, HubSpot, and Canva—to automate processes, coordinate projects, and improve operational efficiency. I am committed to delivering measurable results through strong communication, organization, and problem-solving.
