Zuena Ingabo
@zuenaingabo1
Executive Assistant & Virtual Operations expert—remote-ready, AI-assisted, detail-precise support for leaders.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven Executive Assistant and Executive Virtual Assistant with 7+ years supporting leadership teams across NGOs, Government, and Education. I’m remote-ready and thrive in async communication, helping global clients reclaim time by managing operations, communications, and digital workflows with precision.
I’ve delivered measurable outcomes—maintaining a 98% client satisfaction rate through remote reporting and administrative work, and leading a 2019 National Census team of enumerators to achieve a 98% completion rate across assigned zones. I also contributed to peace efforts, helping reduce election violence by 60% in 2017 versus 2013.
In operations and digital work, I streamline day-to-day workflows, coordinate logistics for major events, and strengthen stakeholder management as a primary point of contact for high-level inquiries. I also protect sensitive information while producing high-accuracy reports, and I’ve managed and updated critical organizational databases including the Ministry of Education (NEMIS) portal with 100% compliance and accuracy.
I combine strong administrative foundations with modern AI tools and cloud-based platforms to move faster and smarter—creating website content, designing multi-platform materials, and supporting social media and digital engagement. From procurement and onboarding to reporting and confidentiality, I bring calm, structured execution to every request.
