Administrative Assistant with 2+ years supporting fast-paced teams through organization, data entry, and office administration.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Administrative Assistant with over 2 years of experience providing administrative, clerical, and operational support in fast-paced environments. I’m highly organized and detail-oriented, and I enjoy managing multiple priorities while keeping accuracy and meeting deadlines.
In my recent work as a Creator & Founder, I managed online brand identity and kept day-to-day operations running smoothly. I handled website updates, product listings, customer enquiries, email management, scheduling, and administrative support—while using tools like Google Workspace, Microsoft Office, Notion, Canva, and AI tools to improve productivity.
Before that, I supported school teams as a Classroom Assistant, helping with classroom activities, events, administrative work, and maintaining a safe, positive environment. I also completed an Administrative Intern role where I maintained digital filing systems, coordinated schedules and meetings, and prepared reports and official documentation using Microsoft Office applications.
I’m passionate about supporting teams remotely and ensuring efficient day-to-day operations. I bring strong record keeping, clear communication, and reliable admin support—so processes stay organized and progress stays on track.
