About

Senior Executive Assistant supporting C-level leaders in international environments. I provide proactive, reliable support by anticipating needs and ensuring structured and efficient workflows. As a trusted partner, I coordinate global activities, align stakeholders across functions and cultures, and handle sensitive matters with discretion. To improve efficiency in increasingly complex environments, I implemented AI-supported workflows (Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT) to enhance communication, meeting preparation, and documentation, resulting in reduced turnaround times and improved clarity. Core strengths: ● Driving efficiency through AI-supported workflows ● Executive-level support and coordination ● Stakeholder management across international teams ● Complex calendar and travel management ● Confidential and high-impact projects
