About Me Hello, I’m Ogechi, an Executive Assistant with 1+ year of experience supporting founders, creatives, and business owners in creating structure behind their growth. My journey began with a love for organization, communication, and human-centered support, and it has evolved into a profession focused on simplifying the complex and creating clarity in the midst of chaos. My expertise spans across calendar and inbox management, travel planning, documentation, event coordination, and project support. I approach every task with intentionality and empathy, knowing that the best support is not just efficient, it’s strategic and intuitive. Driven by a deep commitment to excellence and calm execution, I believe that great assistance is about more than getting things done. It’s about making life lighter, workflows smoother, and people feel seen. That’s what I strive to bring into every collaboration.

Whether you're a solopreneur, a coach, or a growing founder, I help you sort, respond, delegate, and archive messages efficiently. I also set up templates for common responses and establish flagging systems for important or time-sensitive emails. Goal Achieved: Clean, actionable inboxes that boost your responsiveness and save time every single day. SOP CREATION Instead of repeating the same instructions over and over, I create SOPs that let you delegate confidently and focus on bigger goals. Whether you're onboarding a new client, managing reminders, or running recurring admin processes, I write clear, easyto-follow procedures that reflect how you actually work, not just ideal theory. They're human, practical, and built for real-life use by you or your team. Goal Achieved: Systems that save time, reduce confusion, and bring structure to daily tasks , so nothing gets lost, delayed, or done twice. Calendar Management Many professionals run their lives straight from their calendars, but when every hour is stacked with calls and no time to breathe, burnout is inevitable. I create a balanced, color-coded calendar system that protects your time. This includes dedicated blocks for deep work, admin tasks, personal breaks, and buffer zones between meetings. I also optimize recurring tasks and ensure you start and end your days with clarity, not confusion. Goal Achieved: Fewer scheduling conflicts, better work-life balance, and more time for meaningful work. Travel Planning & Itinerary Business travel doesn’t need to be stressful or disorganized. I handle every detail — from flight research and bookings to hotel options, airport transfers, and daily itineraries. I compile everything into one neat document (or shared Google folder) so you never scramble for confirmation emails or last-minute reservations again. Goal Achieved:A smooth, stress-free travel experience that allows you to stay focused on the purpose of the trip, not the logistics. Research & Reporting Need to compare tools, vendors, or find answers quickly? I specialize in structured, focused research that delivers decisionready insights. From competitor breakdowns to lead lists or event vendor research, I gather and present findings in clear formats (Google Sheets, Docs, or Slides), saving you hours of web-scrolling and data sorting. Goal Achieved: Better decisions made faster — with no mental energy spent searching.
