Kaiyla Watson
@kaiylawatson
I am an experienced administrative professional and founder specializing in operations, virtual assisting, and office management.
What I'm looking for
I am an organized, detail-oriented administrative professional and Founder/CEO with experience supporting executive teams and managing operations for multiple clients. I deliver high-level administrative support, calendar and inbox management, and reliable document preparation.
I develop and implement standard operating procedures and digital systems to streamline workflows, improve team efficiency, and maintain accurate records. I regularly set up and manage websites, EMR systems, invoicing processes, and other technical tools to enhance client operations.
My background includes customer-facing roles in telecommunications and retail that honed my communication, problem-solving, and customer service skills. I have led clinic and nonprofit operations, overseen onboarding, coordinated teams, and prepared board and meeting materials while managing shifting priorities.
I hold an Online Business Manager certification (IAOBM) and am completing SheCodes Junior Developer training, and I volunteer in community tech and team roles. I am seeking a full-time administrative role where I can apply systems thinking, hands-on operations management, and collaborative support to help a team grow.
