A Bit About Me

After 7 years + of experience in Executive Assistance, Operations, Project Management, and Front of House in the corporate world, I decided to create a Virtual Assistant company that supports companies and founders thrive. Supporting roles are a company's secret weapon, and I have used wisdoms and best practices learned from corporate to serve businesses and entrepreneurs. In 2021, we launched our company and have since expanded our team to support companies worldwide.

Growing up in Tottenham, London, as one of eight children, I was determined to defy the odds and achieve something significant. My parents, who fled Uganda as asylum seekers, instilled in me a strong sense of community This background has fuelled my mission to leave a lasting impact through my work and legacy.

Virtual Assistant Diary was born out of my recognition of a gap in the industry for experienced virtual assistants. My extensive background as an Executive Assistant, Operations Manager, and Project Manager equipped me with the confidence to create a company that could be a valuable asset to businesses.

I am honoured to have been awarded "Business Woman of the Year 2023" by Foundervines Changemakers Awards and to be nominated for Young Entrepreneur of the Year by the prestigious Precious Awards.

My professional journey includes collaborations with Foundervine, Lloyds Bank, Amazon Web Services, and Lambeth Council. I also sit on the Board of Bookishly, contributing my expertise as a business coach and consultant. Moreover, I mentor youth empowerment programmes for organisations such as Leaders In Community, where I also serve on the board.

Through my daily life, business and personal endeavours, I strive to add value to people, projects, and organisations, just as my parents created true value for me.
