What I'm looking for

I seek a full-time creative role in Beijing that values cross-cultural communication, event and office coordination, and opportunities to support disability rights and equality.

I am a bilingual administrative professional with a BA from UC Berkeley and experience supporting legal, design, and healthcare teams. I bring strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and experience handling bilingual correspondence and scheduling.

In my current role as a legal assistant I draft and organize case documents, manage schedules, and coordinate with overseas clients; I also supported INTA conference logistics. I have internship experience in product design and hospital prosthetics departments, plus campus event and housing management roles that sharpened my cross-cultural communication and coordination abilities.

I am immediately available for full-time work in Beijing and offer dependable customer service, task coordination, and professional communication—ready to support administrative operations and guest reception with discretion and efficiency.
