About me
I am a fast learning, driven and committed professional with over 15 years of experience in providing executive level of organisation and support to CEO’s and Senior Executives. Highly skilled in ensuring the seamless and efficient execution of daily operations in any work environment.
I have experience in working within global organisations and studio-based environments within industries of interest (not limited) – Fashion, Beauty to Art galleries which valued openness, contribution, and flexibility. My previous experience as a business owner - a four-year project from 2009 – 2013, has strengthened my ability to plan, strategize, budget and deal with business issues / challenges through resilience and determination. Building relationships with trust and honesty has created opportunities where I have provided support in a private capacity, held accountable for managing teams, encouraged performance, asserted decisions to developing manuals for staff guidance. Taking lessons learned and transferring portable skills have positively driven me forward.
Empathy, diversity, and good ethics are of high importance to me.
Keen to work with individuals or companies who would like my help to improve their operations, identify and overcome challenges, generate ideas for solutions and achieve their goals.
