Personal Assistant | Project Manager | QA | For Founders & Teams

I help founders, CEOs, and startup teams stay organized, move faster, and ship better by combining hands-on executive support, project management, and QA testing in one person. With 3+ years of experience working remotely in fast-paced venture and startup environments, I serve as the right hand to decision-makers: coordinating day-to-day priorities, keeping work moving forward, and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks. What I bring to the table: 🗂️ Personal Assistance • Email and Calendar management • Meeting prep, notes, and follow-up tracking • Research, reporting, and decision-support briefs • Vendor and stakeholder communication • SOPs and internal documentation • Tools: Google Workspace • Microsoft Office • Zoom • Word • Excel 📋 Project Management • End-to-end project coordination across product, design, and dev teams • Requirement gathering, sprint planning, and delivery checklists • Feedback alignment and signoff handling across clients and internal team • App Store submission and launch workflows • Tools: Jira • Linear • Notion • Trello • Slack ✅ QA Testing • Manual QA for mobile (iOS & Android) and web applications • UX-driven testing: not just "does it work?" but "does it feel right?" • 2,000+ issues logged with clear reproduction steps and impact notes • Smoke testing, regression, and release validation • Tools: TestFlight • Firebase Console • Zephyr • Google Play Console I work with founders and teams who need a reliable, self-directed professional they don't have to micromanage. If you've been handling too many moving parts yourself and need someone to step in and take ownership, send a message and let's get started.
