What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a remote Virtual Assistant role where I can support administrative workflows, data accuracy, customer communication, and operational coordination. I'm available for full-time or part-time flexible shifts from a dedicated home office.

I've supported day-to-day operations at Africom Petroleum by managing schedules, work plans, communication streams, inventory logs, and logistics tracking across multi-unit teams.

At Hass Petroleum, I maintained enterprise data, verified records, and produced administrative summaries, operating manuals, and technical specifications for regional teams.

I also provided Tier-1 support to more than 200 daily users at Kenya Methodist University, handling email, phone, and ticketing inquiries while maintaining access databases and digital asset logs.

I'm comfortable working remotely with Google Workspace, Microsoft Office, Excel, SQL, PostgreSQL, Power BI, Tableau, and Python. I bring fluent English and Swahili communication, native Somali, and a reliable home-office setup for flexible shift coverage.
