With 20+ years in a range of support roles, I am passionate about being a productive, helpful, and trustworthy teammate and from Boston to Shanghai have been recognized at the executive level for outstanding performance and work ethic.A quick learner with an observant and analytical mind, I am adept at problem solving, innovating, organizing information, and improving efficiencies. I have a knack for building connections, uniting diverse groups, collaborating, and leading with creativity and clarity to achieve goals. I excel at writing and editing and in leadership roles receive feedback that I am an engaged and clear communicator.With a precise eye for both detail and the big picture, I deliver on complex execution, translate possibilities into plans, and streamline processes along the way. I love getting my arms around projects; accomplishments include opening an investment banking office, managing numbers for a major airline's local international office, handling a client's business activities as well as improving her quality of life, and suddenly being responsible for HR and hiring with no experience (and appreciating the opportunity from the get-go).I bring positivity, a sense of calm, and level-headedness amidst the buzzes of progress. I am adaptable, anywhere. China is a second home, and from Lombok to Lesotho and elsewhere, my personable, enthusiastic, curious, and resourceful traits turn challenges into adventures to navigate, learn from, and enjoy.Speaker of Mandarin Chinese
