Executive Assistant & Virtual Assistant improving operations, schedules, and responsiveness for founders and senior leaders.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven Executive Assistant and Virtual Assistant with 5+ years of experience managing schedules, inboxes, travel logistics, and day-to-day administrative operations for founders and senior leaders. I’m known for reducing email response times, preventing scheduling conflicts, and keeping critical work moving smoothly across time zones.
In my recent role as a Virtual Assistant with TSARONA (remote), I managed a founder’s and a small team’s schedules and inboxes, cutting email response time from 3–4 days to within 24 hours. I coordinated 10+ weekly meetings across multiple time zones with zero scheduling conflicts, and I handled event travel logistics end-to-end, including researching 100+ food startups to support positioning strategy.
Previously, as a Corporate Implementation Assistant at Sokosh Nig. Ltd, I managed executive calendars across finance and training departments to improve coordination and eliminate scheduling delays. I coordinated 25+ local and international business trips, delivered 2 business proposals monthly within 72-hour turnarounds, and supported a government contract by coordinating acquisition and packaging of 200+ hampers across Lagos and Abuja.
Earlier, as Operations Manager for The Papyrus Magazine, I coordinated 20+ monthly contributors and managed an editorial calendar spanning 50+ articles. I reduced production delays by 70% through tighter coordination between editorial, design, and print teams, while also managing vendors and overseeing printing and distribution of 1,000 copies to the National Assembly, Abuja.
