What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values teamwork and offers growth opportunities.

I am a bilingual administrative and operations professional with over 7 years of experience across Australia, the Philippines, and China. My career has been marked by a proven track record in team coordination, office administration, and client service. I am currently pursuing a Master’s in Cyber Security, which complements my strong software adaptability and keen interest in medical administration.

Throughout my career, I have been recognized for my organizational skills and my ability to remain calm under pressure. I am always ready to support patients and teams with empathy and efficiency. My diverse experiences have equipped me with the skills necessary to excel in various administrative roles, and I am eager to leverage my background in a new opportunity that aligns with my career aspirations.
