What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters growth, values collaboration, and offers opportunities for professional development.

I am an enthusiastic ALX alumna with a strong foundation in organizational management, entrepreneurship, and problem-solving. My journey through ALX’s Virtual Assistant, Founder Academy, and AICE programs has equipped me with the skills necessary to foster growth and create supportive environments for learners. I thrive in dynamic settings, leveraging my adaptability and proactive mindset to drive efficiency and innovation.

In my previous role as an Administrative Operations Assistant, I developed an inventory system that significantly improved the management of perishable goods, ensuring a balance between production and sales. My experience includes coordinating daily administrative operations, optimizing data entry processes, and enhancing communication across departments. I am committed to maintaining high levels of confidentiality and organization, which facilitates efficient decision-making for senior management.

My work with the Liquor Licensing Board involved overseeing daily operations and conducting compliance audits, which reduced licensing errors by 25%. I am passionate about community engagement and have successfully collaborated on various projects, including facilitating international workshops that strengthen foreign relations. I am eager to bring my skills and experiences to a Hub Specialist role, where I can contribute to organizational success and learner empowerment.
