What I'm looking for
I am an accomplished Executive Assistant with over a decade of specialized experience in providing top-tier administrative support and executing strategic initiatives in higher education. My career has been marked by a commitment to efficiency, innovation, and strategic planning, particularly during complex institutional mergers and pivotal historical moments.
In my current role as Executive Assistant to the Dean at City University, I expertly manage executive-level support functions, including complex scheduling, strategic communications, and confidential correspondence. I have facilitated the Dean's oversight during a major university merger, ensuring smooth continuity of leadership and decision-making processes. My ability to streamline travel and event planning has optimized logistical arrangements for both national and international engagements, demonstrating my dedication to enhancing operational efficiency.
Throughout my career, I have built strong relationships with key stakeholders and have been recognized for my ability to respond quickly to changing circumstances. I am now seeking to leverage my extensive background in operational leadership in a global, remote role within education or non-profit organizations.
