I consider myself a Jill of All Trades. While marketing and assistant work is where my main experience lies, I also have a background in project management, operations, digital marketing, property management, and simply, being a right hand. For each project that I tackle, I attempt to bring two things to the table--a sense of creativity, and more importantly, organization. My goal is to contribute towards the growth and success of a company (or individual) and I'm confident that I can do that with the experience and skillset that I have. COPYWRITING/EDITING: I enjoy copywriting and editing in any type of field, but specifically for the medical & dental industry, as well as, real estate. I have a background in article and blog writing that has led to an expertise in research work, as well. Having a copywriting background has also led me to dabble in the marketing industry, which has made me eager to learn more. (Blog writing, newsletters, social media content, property listings, articles, press releases, drip campaigns, ghostwriting) ASSISTANT: Being an assistant is where most of my experience comes from. I thrive off of staying busy and supporting individuals who need real-time support. Email and calendar management are two areas where I have the most experience, as these tend to be the more important needs day-to-day. Aside from managing one's day/life, I have mastered the art of project management, whether that be for big or small teams. I pride myself on my ability to wear many hats and prioritize different tasks throughout the day. This trait is key to being a successful assistant, and over the years, I have been able to perfect it so that my clients benefit. (Project management, scheduling, research, data entry, client relations, customer service, email and inbox management, light bookkeeping, social media management) With all of the experiences that I have had, I've managed to become a very organized, hardworking, and aware individual who seeks to learn as much as I can. While contributing to the growth and success of a company/individual is my main focus, I also aim to expand my knowledge and learn something new as often as possible.
