What I'm looking for

I seek a role providing executive or administrative support in a collaborative, growth-oriented company where I can apply financial controls, bookkeeping, and virtual-assistant expertise.

I am a Virtual Assistant and banking professional with over eight years of experience in customer service, financial operations, and administrative support. I specialize in calendar and inbox management, bookkeeping, client relations, and virtual collaboration to keep executives focused on growth.

As an Internal Control & Compliance Specialist and former Bank Teller, I have a strong track record investigating financial discrepancies, ensuring audit readiness, and processing high-volume transactions with accuracy. I consistently maintain confidentiality while improving operational workflows and client satisfaction.

In freelance virtual assistant roles I manage executive calendars, email campaigns, bookkeeping, data entry, lead generation, and travel logistics using tools such as Google Calendar, Outlook, Asana, QuickBooks, HubSpot, and Zoho. I prioritize precision, responsiveness, and efficiency in every task.

I hold a Bachelor's in Management and am pursuing an MBA in Finance & Accounting; I also completed courses in virtual assistance, customer support, and IT support to broaden my technical and client-service skill set.
