What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an Executive Assistant role where I can support C-level leadership in a fast-paced, client-driven environment—owning calendar and inbox operations, coordinating travel and meetings, and delivering clear executive reporting with discretion.

I’m an Executive Assistant with experience supporting C-level leadership across different industries, including the CEO of a foreign-exchange fintech in Brazil and the CEO of a deck-building company in Canada. I’m known for calendar and inbox management, travel coordination, expense and invoice tracking, and producing executive reports and presentation-ready materials that help leaders make decisions.

I provide end-to-end support to founders and business owners—triaging inboxes, coordinating meetings and travel, and following through on action items. I also bring a strong operational mindset from running my own independent creative practice, plus prior experience in trade marketing and foreign exchange operations, which helps me communicate clearly with stakeholders across creative, marketing, and operations teams.
