What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an Executive Assistant or operations-focused role where I can manage calendars and travel, handle confidential correspondence, coordinate stakeholders, and use tools like Asana/ClickUp and automation to keep leadership organized and calm.

I’m a globally oriented Executive & Virtual Assistant with 4+ years supporting high-level executives, including a Nigerian Senator, across hybrid and remote environments. I integrate technology, systems, and communication tools to optimize daily operations, improve executive performance, and ensure seamless coordination across time zones—always with discretion, structure, and proactive problem-solving.

In my current role, I manage 20+ calendar events monthly across multiple time zones, coordinate 10+ domestic and international trips annually with complete logistical accuracy, and handle 100+ confidential correspondences monthly with zero data breaches. I also support payroll and people operations for 10+ staff, act as the primary liaison with stakeholders and government officials, and keep action items moving through organized records, briefing documentation, and follow-through on executive directives.
