About

I am a Virtual Assistant and Program Coordinator with years of experience supporting administrative operations, scheduling, documentation, and cross-team coordination across public sector and multinational environments. I bring a proven track record of measurable process improvement, including a 25% reduction in escalation cases and 100% on-time closure of audit action items, and I thrive managing multiple priorities independently in fast-paced, remote settings.

As Program Coordinator at Kenya's Teachers Service Commission, I provide administrative and virtual support to managers and program teams, coordinating schedules, correspondence, and stakeholder requests. I draft and proofread professional correspondence, reports, and briefing materials, coordinate meetings and organizational activities, maintain action trackers, and manage electronic filing systems and confidential records. I also support travel and logistical arrangements and assist with procurement and expense documentation.

Previously, as Business Support Specialist at Hashi Energy Limited, I managed calendars and virtual meetings across time zones, coordinated documentation and communication between managers and stakeholders, compiled research and briefing materials, and supported geographically dispersed teams using Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Outlook, SharePoint, and Google Workspace. I handled sensitive information with discretion and proactively identified solutions to improve workflow and service delivery.

Earlier roles at the Postal Corporation of Kenya and AIESEC (Moi University) built my foundation in onboarding, correspondence, records management, and event and meeting coordination. Across every role, I've combined strong organizational discipline with clear, professional communication coordinating stakeholders, handling client and team queries, and keeping documentation accurate and accessible.

My toolkit includes Microsoft Office, Google Workspace, Zoom and Teams, and payroll/HRIS systems (IPPD, SAP, BambooHR), with quick adaptability to new project management tools such as ClickUp, Trello, and Asana. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Human Resources Management from Moi University and am currently pursuing CHRP certification.

I bring discipline, discretion, and dependability to every task, along with a genuine commitment to keeping operations organized, on schedule, and running smoothly for the teams and clients I support.

Why hire me

Give me a moving calendar, a scattered inbox, or a project with loose threads, and I'll bring order to it fast without needing hand-holding to figure out how you like things done. I close the gap between "someone should handle this" and it actually getting handled, reliably and on time. I'm not learning organization on the job I've spent years running the systems that keep operations moving: tracking actions until they're done, catching details before they become problems, and making sure nothing slips even when priorities shift daily. I adapt fast to new tools, work independently across time zones, and handle sensitive information with real discretion. I don't need constant check-ins to stay productive, and I flag issues before they become yours. Ultimaely, I bring order to complex operations, protect your time, and deliver consistent results without requiring close supervision.
