Services offered

Transforming how a historic house museum operated, from internal systems to daily workflows, made it clear that behind-the-scenes work is where I do my best work. That realization is what draws me to my next role.

While my resume outlines my administrative and operations experience, I want to emphasize how I approach my work. I take pride in keeping priorities, communicating and organizing so leaders and teams can stay focused on high-impact decisions. I anticipate needs, track details carefully, and ensure nothing important slips through the cracks.

I would welcome the opportunity to contribute in a role where organization, discretion, and thoughtful support directly strengthen leadership effectiveness.

Senior Executive Assistant and operations professional providing high-level administrative, board, and executive support. Experienced in calendar management, compliance documentation, stakeholder communication, and workflow systems improvement for mission-driven and professional organizations.
