What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that offers growth opportunities, a collaborative culture, and the chance to leverage my legal and administrative skills.

I am a detail-oriented and tech-savvy Bachelor of Commerce in Law graduate with a strong foundation in law, business operations, and client-facing service delivery. My experience spans administrative support, calendar management, and customer engagement, where I have proven my ability to handle high volumes of inquiries while maintaining confidentiality. I thrive in fast-paced environments and am adept at supporting executives and coordinating logistics.

As the founder and manager of House of Lumina, I have successfully built and maintained strong client relationships, converting leads into loyal customers through effective appointment scheduling and marketing strategies. My internships at Khorrombi Attorneys and Old Mutual have further honed my professional communication and research skills, allowing me to strengthen my understanding of legal processes and corporate professionalism.
