Dedicated administrative professional with strong organizational and communication skills.
What I'm looking for
I am an experienced administrative professional with a proven track record in providing exceptional support in fast-paced environments. My journey began with a strong educational foundation, which I have built upon through diverse roles in customer service, management, and administration. I excel in both independent and team settings, demonstrating reliability and a commitment to excellence.
Throughout my career, I have honed my skills in communication, organization, and problem-solving. My role as an Administrative Assistant at Ufanisi Center of Transformation has allowed me to manage travel arrangements, schedule meetings, and provide vital support to my team. Previously, I served as a Manager at Lizzie’s Homes, where I successfully oversaw operations, handled guest relations, and implemented effective sales strategies. My experience at Tamarind Tree Hotel and Meridian Medical Center further solidified my customer service and administrative capabilities.
I am passionate about leveraging my skills to contribute to an organization’s success while continuously seeking opportunities for professional growth and development.
