@jorgeplaza
Virtual Executive Assistant candidate with scheduling and Zoom session experience, supporting about 20 participants per session.
EcuadorWhat I'm looking for
At my private employer in Quito, I scheduled and prepared recurring virtual cooking classes for about 20 participants per session. I also operated Zoom and audio/video systems, providing live technical support during each class.
I recorded and tracked session information in spreadsheets. In my server and customer service work, I handled catering and meal-delivery orders in Spanish and coordinated with other areas to meet delivery times.
At Brickstone Kitchen + Bar, I led nightly closing with a team of 3–4 cooks, checking that stations were cleaned, labeled, and secured. I also managed inventory across prep stations and storage, applying FIFO rotation.
I worked daily in English in multicultural kitchen teams in Canada from 2023 to 2026, including at Kingsmen Ale House. I’m now based in Ecuador, available to support an executive remotely in U.S. Eastern Time, and pursuing a Bachelor’s in Accounting and Auditing.
