About
I’m a detail-oriented and dependable professional with a strong background in administrative support and data entry. I take pride in accuracy, organization, and maintaining clean, reliable records. I’m especially skilled in Microsoft Excel, including creating pivot tables for reporting and analysis, and I enjoy finding ways to improve workflows and streamline processes. I’m looking for a role where I can contribute to a team that values precision and efficiency. I work well independently, stay focused under pressure, and genuinely enjoy keeping things running smoothly behind the scenes. My goal is to support teams with accurate data and dependable clerical support so they can focus on the bigger picture.
