What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can streamline operations, manage events and teams, apply analytics to improve processes, and contribute to organizational growth.

I am an operations and office administration professional with 7+ years' experience in administration, events coordination, and team leadership. I deliver executive support, streamline processes, and manage budgets while ensuring compliance and operational continuity.

I have led projects such as licence applications, implemented resource tracking that improved budget efficiency by 12%, and introduced automated inventory tracking that raised accuracy by 20%. I coordinate company-wide meetings and events, oversee vendor management, and use data analytics to inform decisions.

I mentor and supervise staff, develop policies and procedures to strengthen governance, and seek roles where organization meets creativity to produce measurable operational improvements.
