I build compliant operations and provide trusted executive support for senior public-sector leadership.
What I'm looking for
I've supported senior public-sector leadership in Honduras by managing executive priorities, institutional operations, compliance, and confidential documentation.
As Legal & Governance Adviser to the Minister at the Ministry of Strategic Planning, I acted as the principal contact for the Minister's schedule, correspondence, and priorities while designing SOPs, governance frameworks, and internal controls. I also coordinated with government counterparts, donors, and civil society partners and delivered compliance and performance reporting to senior leadership.
Previously, as Secretary General, I led regulatory and operational reform and supervised five units spanning Legal, Communications, External Cooperation, Transparency Information, and Modernization. I managed official documentation, inter-institutional communication, high-level meeting logistics, and the legal integrity of formal instruments.
With the National Civil Register of Honduras and UNDP's Identifícate programme, I helped support operations reaching more than 5 million Hondurans and contributed to frameworks for 500+ field personnel. I bring English and Spanish fluency, working French, financial management training, and confidence working remotely across US time zones.
