What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can support day-to-day operations—managing documents, schedules, and records—while applying my teaching and tutoring strengths to help the team run smoothly and serve people with care.

I support smooth operations by managing documents and daily administrative workflows with a calm, organized approach. In my Clerical Officer role, I handled Board of Directors and General Manager document support and coordinated tasks like liquidation reports, travel and gas purchase orders, gate passes, leave management, and minutes of meetings.

I also bring frontline and educational experience: as a Personal Assistant, I supported executive operations through payroll preparation, cash handling, and financial coordination, while supervising inventory and procurement. I’m a Licensed Professional Teacher, and I’ve delivered lesson plans, classroom records, and reading comprehension support through practicum and Project PAGBASA tutoring.
