If you are a founder or business owner operating across English, Malay, Chinese and Cantonese-speaking markets, and you need one reliable person to keep the backend running, that is exactly what I do.
With 10 years of experience supporting founders, CEOs, and operations teams across Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan, US, UK and Australia, I work as the right hand that keeps everything moving — communications, coordination, project delivery, and day-to-day operations, so you can stay focused on growth.
What makes me different from a typical VA: I am multilingual and I bring automation thinking into everything I do. I use tools like Airtable, Make, Claude AI and Zapier to streamline repetitive work, reduce manual steps, and build systems that keep things from falling through the cracks, without you needing a separate operations or tech hire.
WHAT I HELP WITH
✅ VIRTUAL ASSISTANT & EXECUTIVE SUPPORT: Inbox and calendar management, stakeholder communication, meeting prep, follow-ups, travel arrangements, and day-to-day task coordination. I have supported founders across professional services, F&B, e-commerce, education, and hospitality, stepping in as the operational backbone so they can focus on what matters.
✅ PROJECT MANAGEMENT & COORDINATION: End-to-end coordination across website builds, product launches, webinars, and team onboarding. I manage timelines, stakeholders, and deliverables, and keep cross-functional teams aligned from brief to delivery.
✅ OPERATIONS & WORKFLOW AUTOMATION: I use Airtable, Make, Zapier, and Jotform to build workflows that reduce manual work and keep operations running smoothly. I leverage AI tools to work smarter and move faster, without the overhead of a full development team.
✅ MULTILINGUAL OPERATIONS: Native Mandarin and Cantonese (traditional & simplified Chinese), fluent in English and Malay, I can manage your HK, TW, UK, US, SG, MY, AUS or China-facing operations directly. Client communication, supplier liaison, multilingual correspondence, and stakeholder management across both markets without needing a separate person for each language. I know what gets lost in translation and make sure it doesn't.
✅ CONTENT & VISUALS: Supporting capability for founders who need one person to handle it all, branded graphics (Canva), presentations, and social media content for Chinese-speaking markets.
TECH STACK
Automation & Productivity: Airtable, Make, Zapier, Jotform, Claude AI
Project Management: ClickUp, Trello, Basecamp, Notion, Microsoft Teams
Communication & CRM: Zoho CRM, Google Suite, MS Office, Slack, Zoom
Content: Canva, CapCut, Buffer, Meta
