What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own transaction execution and operational workflows, protect compliance, and improve visibility. I want a fast-paced environment across stakeholders—ideally in proptech, startups, or high-growth companies—where process optimization matters.

I’m an operations and transaction professional with 4+ years of experience driving execution across complex commercial real estate transactions. I bring structure, accountability, and operational clarity to fast-paced, deadline-driven environments.

In my most recent role, I directed operational coordination across 20+ concurrent commercial real estate transactions, serving as the central liaison between attorneys, brokers, clients, and internal stakeholders. I maintained compliance oversight and documentation integrity across transactions exceeding R30M in property value, while proactively identifying process gaps and operational risks before they impacted timelines.

Previously, I served as an Operations and Transaction Manager, keeping a zero-breach AML/FICA compliance record through rigorous documentation oversight and process control. I also redesigned operational workflows and reporting systems to reduce administrative delays, strengthened cross-functional collaboration, and trained staff and service providers on operational workflows, systems, and compliance procedures.
