What I'm looking for

I seek a remote legal or administrative support role where I can apply my paralegal training, fleet and operations experience, strong organization, and compliance skills to add reliability and efficiency.

I am a qualified Paralegal with hands-on operational experience as a Fleet Coordinator managing a large fleet and leading a team of mechanics. My responsibilities include scheduling, reporting, compliance, recordkeeping, and cross-department communication, and I consistently deliver reliable administrative support under pressure.

Previously I worked in internal sales and quality inspection roles where I honed logistics coordination, customer engagement, and rigorous quality-control processes. I have experience supervising teams, dispatching drivers and goods, and using CRM, fleet tracking systems, spreadsheets, and reporting tools.

I am proficient with cloud-based tools, legal databases, and remote communication platforms, and I bring a proactive, detail-oriented, and dependable work ethic. I am seeking remote legal or administrative support roles where I can apply my organizational, compliance, and operational strengths.
