What I'm looking for

I am seeking an administrative or coordination role in an international or development-focused organization where I can apply my project coordination, records management, and cross-cultural communication skills to drive results.

I am a highly organized administrative professional with over 3 years of experience supporting international project work and research coordination.

At KOPIA Ghana Centre I managed the Director's official correspondence, coordinated logistics for stakeholder meetings, maintained 100% accurate project documentation, and streamlined procurement to reduce delivery delays.

I have mentored visiting scientists in English, translated and proofread English–Korean documents, and supported cross-cultural knowledge-sharing initiatives that improved team collaboration and inclusion.

My background in Materials Science and Engineering, combined with hands-on roles in site supervision, teaching, and retail management, gives me a practical, accountable approach to records management, scheduling, bookkeeping, and stakeholder communication.
