What I'm looking for

As a dedicated operations professionals, I excel in optimizing workflow and enhancing team collaboration through effective communication and organization.

I’m a passionate and driven remote professional currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Events and Convention Management at the Technical University of Kenya. Over time, I’ve developed strong experience in transcription, virtual assistance, customer service, and digital communication. I’ve worked on a variety of freelance projects that have sharpened my attention to detail, organizational skills, and ability to manage tasks efficiently under minimal supervision. I thrive in structured remote environments and enjoy providing high-quality work with clarity, consistency, and commitment.

My interests lie at the intersection of remote collaboration, client support, and digital systems that improve how teams operate. I’m especially drawn to roles where I can use my communication and coordination strengths to make workflows smoother and more impactful. I believe in continuous learning and adapting to new challenges, and I’m actively exploring opportunities where I can contribute meaningfully while growing both personally and professionally. I’m ready to bring value to teams that are passionate about innovation, integrity, and mutual growth.

Outside of work, I enjoy writing, learning new digital tools, and exploring creative ways to connect people through experiences and storytelling.
