Summary

As an executive assistant at Meta, I excel in managing complex calendars for directors and executives. My diverse experiences in customer service, tutoring, community work, and other people-oriented industries have honed my interpersonal skills. These valuable skill sets have fueled my passion for assisting others and continuously learning from them to make a positive impact on their lives. I approach each skill I acquire to build strong relationships and collaborate in bridging the opportunity divide. I firmly believe that unity can lead to achieving anything, transcending diverse backgrounds to find common ground. Throughout my professional journey, I have come to appreciate the power of empathy as an authentic quality that enables me to connect with and support others. Guided by principles of integrity and a commitment to providing quality assistance, I am dedicated to further cultivating these values as I continue to grow.
