What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I provide high-level executive support and learning design, in collaborative, mission-driven organizations that value operational excellence, professional development, and impact.

I am an Executive Virtual Assistant and learning designer with 15 years supporting Founders, CEOs, and Boards in fast-paced, complex environments. I combine meticulous administrative execution with strategic operational design to enable leaders to focus on priorities.

I founded EA Hacks and designed eahacks.com to coach administrative professionals in productivity, AI tool optimization, prioritization, and professional development, and I redesign learning experiences that scaled to hundreds of thousands of learners.

I have led high-profile stakeholder coordination, CEO office continuity during leadership transitions, and developed playbooks, reporting systems, and flagship learning programs that improved engagement, retention, and operational outcomes.
