Executive Virtual Assistant streamlining C-suite calendars, travel, and confidential workflows.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Executive Virtual Assistant with 6+ years supporting C-suite leaders, focused on making high-stakes operations run smoothly across time zones. I combine precise scheduling, inbox triage, and stakeholder coordination with strict confidentiality.
I’ve managed complex calendars with 99.7% conflict-free scheduling and reduced meeting overlaps by 40% through strategic time-blocking and priority-based allocation. I also prepare and coordinate 250+ executive meetings annually, ensuring materials are ready and reducing last-minute changes by 65%.
When it comes to travel and executive communication, I handle the full cycle—flights, visas, hotels, ground transport, itineraries, and expense workflows—while improving efficiency (including cutting executive travel time by an average of 3.5 hours per trip). I draft, proofread, and finalize 300+ executive communications annually and set SLAs to cut critical-message response time to under 2 hours.
I document SOPs in Notion/ClickUp and streamline workflows using AI and automation, including Zapier and tools like ChatGPT/Claude, reducing administrative processing time by 15 hours while maintaining accuracy. From donor database improvements and knowledge management to executive support at scale, I bring structured thinking, calm execution, and measurable results.
