02 — About

Not just an EA.
An AI-powered operator.

I'm a remote Executive Assistant and operations specialist based in Davao City, Philippines, with over a decade of experience supporting founders, investors, and executives across marketing, real estate, and fintech.

What separates me from most EAs: I actively build with AI. I use Claude AI, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Zapier, and Vercel to automate workflows, deploy tools, and eliminate the bottlenecks that slow down fast-moving teams.

I operate with full discretion, minimal oversight, and a bias toward building things that keep working long after the conversation ends.
