What I'm looking for
I’m an Operations Leader with over 8 years of experience overseeing people, processes, and performance in dynamic, high-growth environments. I lead diverse teams, optimize workflows, and build scalable systems that align daily execution with business goals—whether supporting U.S.-based executives remotely or running delivery operations for global clients.
In my recent roles, I’ve managed a team of 9 Executive Assistants, monitored KPIs, and improved service delivery by streamlining onboarding and standardizing work through SOP development. Previously, as a Team Lead at Samasource Kenya Ltd, I supervised 20+ associates and implemented Agile and Lean principles to increase efficiency by 30% and reduce turnaround time, while using performance reporting and dashboards to drive operational gains in quality and throughput.
