What I'm looking for
I'm a motivated and empathetic professional with a diverse background in administration, data management, and coaching. I’ve worked for both government and nonprofit organizations, focusing on customer service, GDPR compliance, and data processing tasks like invoice checking and data preparation.
Alongside my professional work, I’ve led projects aimed at supporting people with autism, which deepened my strengths in communication, structure, and empathy.
I’m also a self-taught day trader, content creator (TikTok/YouTube), and former team leader who enjoys making processes more efficient and helping others grow. I thrive in remote roles that require precision, responsibility, and a heart for continuous improvement.
Outside of work, I’m a musician, spiritual thinker, and someone who values honesty, growth, and making a positive impact in people’s lives.
