Justine Garzota
@justinegarzota
Proactive Executive Assistant and Special Education educator focused on seamless communication, reliable operations, and strong coordination.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Bachelor of Special Needs Education graduate with strong organizational and administrative experience, and I thrive in fast-paced environments. I’m detail-oriented, proactive, and highly reliable—always ready to keep daily operations running smoothly.
In my recent roles, I’ve managed scheduling, documentation, and coordination with multidisciplinary teams, while maintaining confidentiality of sensitive information. As an adviser and Teaching Assistant, I supported IEP-related work, assessments, data gathering, and report preparation with accuracy and high attention to detail.
I also bring executive support strengths through booking meetings, coordinating with diverse teams, and using digital tools for communication and task management. I’m currently expanding my leadership impact as a student council Executive Board Vice President, which has reinforced my commitment to clear stakeholder communication and effective problem-solving.
