As an Executive Assistant to the CEO at Custom Wood Furniture And Railing, I provide comprehensive administrative support and facilitate effective communication and project execution across various teams. I manage all email inboxes and calendars, draft correspondence to vendors, clients, and officials, arrange domestic travel for the CEO and his family, schedule appointments, and I am in charge of payroll and the reconciliation of expenses. I perform my duties while ensuring strict confidentiality of sensitive information.

In this role I have also: implemented company health and safety guidelines, launched a 3D architectural design service to expand clientele and boost project efficiency, and implemented Monday.com (Construction) to streamline the company's project management process. In May 2024, I will receive my Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and Government from Boston University, where I have been recognized as a Dean's List Honoree and a member of the Alpha Alpha Alpha National First-Generation Honor Society. I also served as the Director of Digital Content on the Board of Directors of Boston University's International Relations Review, an analytical, policy-oriented academic journal. I have a keen interest in research, sustainable development, government, administration, academia, and public policy, and I have honed my skills in digital content strategy, statistical analysis, and R&D. I have also contributed to publications where I showcase my interests in global security, regional geopolitics, and political theory, demonstrating my analytical and writing abilities. I am open to work and eager to apply my skills and knowledge to new challenges and opportunities!
