What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a senior-support role where I can run complex calendars, coordinate executive projects, and use AI tools to improve business writing and operational efficiency—partnering closely with C-Suite in a collaborative, high-ownership environment.

I’m an executive assistant known for being a trusted “right hand” to senior leadership—aligning priorities, anticipating needs, protecting time, and supporting decision-making in fast-paced, highly confidential environments.

I coordinate multiple concurrent initiatives, manage complex calendars across domestic and international time zones, and handle end-to-end travel and meeting execution. I regularly partner with C-Suite, board members, and senior leadership—serving as a primary liaison and ensuring smooth communication and follow-through.

On the work-product side, I design executive-level PowerPoint presentations, proofread and format contracts and proposals, and manage full-cycle invoicing plus expense reporting. I also build operational efficiency through scheduling automation (Calendly), organized digital filing systems (Box), and rigorous reporting using Excel.

I’m currently enrolled in an AI course to further incorporate AI into my workflow, and I already leverage tools like ChatGPT and Copilot for business writing. I’ve also supported CRM operations (Encore, Invenias), contributed to CRM migration, and led CRM training and onboarding—always aiming to improve systems, data quality, and team execution.
