What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a remote-ready role supporting executives and running efficient operations—building SOPs, streamlining workflows, coordinating teams across time zones, and improving turnaround times with dependable, high-accuracy execution.

I’m an Executive Assistant & Operations Manager with 8+ years supporting executives and managing complex operations across education, real estate, and international remote teams. I specialize in making leaders more effective by handling everything behind the scenes—so they can focus on what matters most.

In my most recent executive support role, I reduced executive turnaround time by 25% (8 to 6 days) and improved document retrieval efficiency by 40% through structured digital filing systems. Earlier, as an Administrative Manager, I improved operational efficiency by 30% (10 to 7 days), scaled capacity to manage 1,000+ monthly requests, and increased social media engagement by 45% (5,000 to 7,250 followers in 6 months).

My core strengths are executive calendar and inbox management, SOP development, workflow optimization, cross-functional coordination, vendor management, and remote operations support. I bring high-accuracy execution, stakeholder communication, and a continuous-improvement mindset that translates directly into faster outcomes and smoother day-to-day operations.
