    "I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel" –Maya Angelo. With 9+ years of experience proven track record of mid-level expertise in administrative and executive assistant support. I have a great ability to maximize efficiencies, create professional relationships within organizations/departments, and work in a fast-paced environment. My motivation stems from a role where I can help others by finding solutions. As an Outreach and Recruitment Specialist at UC Santa Cruz extension, I had the opportunity to work with students in leading them into a proper educational path they wish to pursue within our certificate programs. I also helped coordinate info session events before every quarter to help students get the chance to discuss questions and get an overview of how our programs work. I have had the opportunity to exercise my ability to be adaptable as an Event Planner at Google and also support my team as we faced a high-impact time during our zone transition model. Part of my role consisted of managing approximately 100 calendars while working with clients from different groups within Google in helping coordinate logistics of All Hands and Google Wide Events with well over 100 people in attendance. In addition to holiday-themed team celebrations while working with our partner teams and knowing each zone/ building policies. As an Office Manager/Executive Assistant at Spring Discovery, I had the opportunity to explore different roles in HR, People Operations, Recruiting Coordinator, Business Development, and Office Management. In addition, I was allowed to help Spring Discovery grow but managing multiple roles and work closely with our CEO and Chief of Staff to find ways to improve and scale our company. At GGV Capital, I've expanded and elevated my skillset as an Executive Assistant and gained more experience in event marketing by supporting my executive and the platform team. Additionally, I've owned, and project managed swag projects to completion and along with other various ad-hoc projects. At Aptos Labs, I elevated my role in administration as a Senior Executive Assistant to the CEO and CTO where I supported both executives in strategically managing their time. I would own booking their travel/logistics for international trips and would work cross functionally with the marketing team to ensure everything ran smoothly during their trips. I would keep track of their receipts and submit expense reports on their behalf. I would own putting together onsite events at the office (hiring vendors, and the set up/breakdown of the event). I took office management related projects to ensure employees were happy while working in the office. One project I owned was creating a process for booking conference rooms as there was no process. I hired/outsourced an IT person to support with finding the right software to use and then ensuring it synced properly to our G-suite. At Nauto, I continued to work with a CEO as a Senior Executive Assistant. I supported the CEO along with the C Level Executive team with any administrative projects/requests. I created different documents to keep track of any relevant information regarding the CEO and ensuring it would stay up to date as information would change. Expertise in: • Event planning/coordinating • Executive Assistant • People Operations • Human Resources • Business Development • Project Management
