What I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented Virtual Executive Assistant with proven experience providing high-level administrative support across healthcare and corporate environments.

Certified as an ALX Virtual Assistant, I have successfully supported front-desk operations, cash accounting, HR recruitment and payroll administration, and customer-service functions. I am adaptable, tech-savvy (quick to learn platforms like Jira, Confluence, and HubSpot), and focused on anticipating needs to keep fast-paced teams organized and productive.
