Dedicated virtual assistant with strong administrative and customer service skills.

What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values efficiency and offers opportunities for growth.

I am a dedicated virtual assistant with a strong background in administrative support and customer service. Over the past few years, I have honed my skills in managing daily operations, coordinating with clients, and ensuring smooth workflows. My experience as an Administrative Assistant at AK Truck and Field Services allowed me to develop a keen eye for detail while managing calls, scheduling, and bookkeeping tasks using QuickBooks Desktop.

In my role as a Virtual Assistant for Munch Catering, I provided remote support by handling communications, managing bookings, and creating event schedules. I take pride in my ability to improve internal workflows and maintain organized digital filing systems, which has significantly increased efficiency. Currently, I am expanding my skill set as an English tutor, where I design personalized lesson plans and utilize digital tools to create engaging virtual classrooms.
