At Freelance, I provide executive-level support to CEOs, founders, and NGO leaders, keeping priorities and deadlines visible across multiple workstreams. I track 50+ action items and have closed 100+ tasks on time in ClickUp.

I support 10–15 meetings per week and document decisions, owners, and deadlines. When a workflow approval was stalling the engineering team, I followed up with the traveling VP of Operations using a structured Slack note; the approval came back within ten minutes.

I built and troubleshot an AI automation workflow using Google Forms, Make.com, Claude AI, Gmail, Notion, and Slack to streamline intake, documentation, and follow-up. I also launched and run my freelance practice in a remote-first environment.
