What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can provide reliable virtual support, combine teaching experience with administrative tasks, grow professionally, and work with collaborative, mission-driven teams.

I am an energetic and creative Virtual Assistant with a background in Agricultural Economics and Extension. I deliver prompt, reliable service and excel at organizing tasks, supporting clients, and improving processes through practical solutions.

My experience includes classroom teaching across junior secondary and basic education levels, where I introduced practical, hands-on methods to increase student engagement and participation. I have volunteered as an assistant teacher and offered free virtual assistance to expand my digital support skills under ALX coaching.

I communicate well in both written and verbal formats, plan events, and bring enthusiasm for nature, research, and regional development to my work. I consistently aim to combine creativity and efficiency to help clients meet deadlines and achieve goals.
