I help founders, executives, law firms, and growing businesses run more efficiently through executive support, project coordination, legal administration, and AI-powered workflow optimisation. I have helped more than 30 executives, founders, legal teams, and organisations create structure, streamline operations, coordinate projects, and keep their businesses moving forward without the daily operational chaos. Whether I'm managing an executive's calendar, coordinating a project, supporting legal work, automating repetitive tasks with AI, or keeping an ADHD entrepreneur organised and accountable, my focus is always the same: helping my clients save time and operate more effectively. I have successfully supported founders and consultants with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), helping them build systems, stay accountable, manage priorities, and reduce overwhelm. My legal background means I bring more than administrative support. I analyse problems, improve processes, create structure, and manage confidential information with professionalism and discretion. I can support you with: • Executive calendar and inbox management • Project coordination and follow-through • AI workflow automation and productivity systems • ADHD executive support and accountability • Legal research, contracts, and document management • Recruitment and team coordination • CRM management and process improvement • Research, reporting, and executive communications I have supported executives and businesses across the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, the Netherlands, South Africa, and Zambia, working with startups, law firms, SaaS companies, professional services, nonprofits, and consulting businesses. I integrate quickly into new teams, communicate proactively, and take ownership of the work that keeps your business moving. If you're looking for an Executive Assistant who combines executive support, legal expertise, project coordination, AI-powered workflows, and operational thinking, I'd love to help.
