E-commerce Operations | Administrative & Logistics Support I have over 7 years of remote experience supporting international companies with e-commerce operations, customer support, billing, and order management, along with more than 3 years of running my own local business. I enjoy behind-the-scenes work, keeping processes organized, solving operational problems, and making sure everything runs smoothly. After moving to the Netherlands in 2023, I took a break from freelancing to build my life here. During that time, I learned Dutch (B1 level), completed my Dutch civic integration process and started my own local B2B service company. Running my business has strengthened my experience in client management, invoicing, bookkeeping, scheduling, Excel reporting, and Dutch business administration. Now I am excited to combine both worlds: continuing to run my business while supporting international companies remotely through Upwork.
