What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can support executives with dependable calendar coordination, stakeholder communication, and accurate invoicing/payroll processing. I want a structured environment that values efficiency, clear records, and using tools like QuickBooks, Trello, and Notion.

I’m an Executive Assistant with strong administration and payroll experience, focused on accuracy, organization, and keeping day-to-day operations running smoothly. I handle financial tasks like processing invoices and expenses, maintaining billing accuracy, and supporting cash flow and payroll through reliable recordkeeping.

In my recent role, I responded to partner and stakeholder inquiries by phone and email, coordinating routine resolutions and escalating complex issues to the operations team. I also supported smooth execution of meetings and events using tools like Trello and Notion to track deadlines, organize tasks, and keep everyone aligned.

Previously, as an Administration And Payroll Officer, I prepared and tracked reports on payables and payment schedules in QuickBooks, verified supplier invoices, and scheduled payments on time. I monitored invoice timelines, archived projects to keep records clean, and used AI tools to automate repetitive tasks and improve workflow efficiency.

I bring strong communication and calendar management skills, including supporting the CEO with communications and scheduling. I also contributed to SRC Academics by presenting data visually and facilitating student relationship building—strengthening my ability to collaborate, communicate clearly, and ensure stakeholder needs are met.
