I am a detail-oriented virtual assistant skilled in remote workflow management.
What I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented virtual assistant experienced in managing remote, asynchronous workflows, email systems, scheduling, and content moderation. I proactively support teams using Google Workspace, Notion, Slack, and Mailchimp to keep projects on track and communications clear.
In recent roles I reduced scheduling conflicts by 30% and helped lower pharmacy stock-outs by 15%, and I built a role-based API with Django REST Framework during a backend capstone. I bring strong documentation, research, and collaboration skills and am committed to reliable, efficient support.
