Executive Assistant & Operations Specialist

Bring structure. Take ownership.

You shouldn't have to remember everything, chase every task, or figure out every little detail yourself.
I can take that off your plate.

About Me

5+ years of experience supporting founders and growing businesses.

I’m an Executive Assistant and Operations Specialist with a little over 5 years of experience working alongside executives, founders, and teams across various industries.

Over the years, I’ve learned that good support is about more than being organized. It’s knowing what needs attention, remembering the things that are easy to overlook, following through without being chased, and being comfortable figuring things out when there isn’t a perfect playbook.

My work has taken me from managing busy executive calendars and inboxes to coordinating travel, supporting real estate acquisition research, building SOPs, managing content workflows, and keeping projects moving across different teams and time zones.

I’m naturally the person who starts asking, "Is there a better way to do this?" If something is unnecessarily complicated, repeated every week, or constantly getting stuck in the same place, I want to understand why and help fix it.

Work Samples

A look at my work in action.

From structured calendars to detailed process documentation, here are a few examples of how I organize operations behind the scenes.

Scheduling

Calendar Management

Strategic scheduling with color-coded categories, time-blocking, and built-in buffer times to keep executive days productive, balanced, and free from burnout.

View Case Study →

The Challenge

The executive's calendar was busy and fragmented, making it difficult to protect focus time, prioritize important meetings, and allow enough transition time between commitments.

My Approach

Created a structured calendar system using color-coded categories, time-blocking, meeting rules, buffers, and protected focus time.

The Outcome

A more intentional and manageable calendar that made priorities easier to see, reduced scheduling friction, and created more breathing room in the executive's day.

Documentation

Process Documentation (SOP)

A detailed calendar and scheduling guide covering time blocks, meeting rules, Calendly, travel time, buffers, and handling scheduling conflicts.

The Challenge

Important scheduling and calendar-management processes needed to be documented clearly so they could be followed consistently rather than relying on memory or individual preferences.

My Approach

Created a practical SOP covering calendar structure, time blocks, meeting rules, Calendly, travel time, buffers, and handling scheduling conflicts.

The Outcome

A clear, repeatable reference that makes the process easier to follow, maintain, and hand over.

Automation

Work Automation

A Zapier automated request workflow connecting Google Forms → Google Sheets → Notion → Slack, to capture, organize, route, and track internal team requests.

View Case Study →

The Challenge

Internal requests were being handled manually, making it harder to capture, organize, route, and track requests efficiently.

My Approach

Built an automated workflow connecting Google Forms, Google Sheets, Zapier, Notion, and Slack to capture requests, create trackable tasks, and notify the right people.

The Outcome

A more centralized and trackable request process with less manual follow-up and clearer visibility into outstanding work.
