What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a remote role where I can use my operations, analytical, and project coordination skills, improve processes, and take ownership of meaningful work. I value flexibility, trust, and a supportive international team.

My background is in Business Management and International Management, with experience across operations, project coordination, finance, e-commerce, and client-facing roles. I have managed international projects, coordinated clients and external partners, handled budgets and financial processes, and worked with tools such as Excel, Power BI, SQL, QuickBooks, Asana, Monday, Notion, and Google Workspace. I’m particularly interested in operations, process improvement, business/data analysis, and international teams. I enjoy taking complex or unstructured work, creating a clear system around it, and making processes more efficient and easier to manage.
