Experience

1. Administrative Assistant

   Nate Berkus Associates

   Jul 2023 — Present · Chicago, IL, US

   I manage a wide range of responsibilities that ensure the smooth operation of the office and provide high-level support across teams. I coordinate all incoming calls, guests, and deliveries, maintain kitchen and office equipment, and prepare the workspace for client meetings and internal events. My role includes organizing office logistics, handling errands, managing supply orders, and overseeing internal communications. I also support intern recruitment and onboarding, assist with light bookkeeping, and manage document organization and charity request coordination.Beyond daily operations, I contribute to more specialized projects, including policy updates such as revising the employee handbook and supporting complex international administrative processes. This has involved coordinating with legal professionals, managing sensitive documentation, and scheduling cross-border appointments—requiring discretion, precision, and strong communication skills.A unique aspect of my role involves serving as the creative director for Lauren Buxbaum Gordon’s Instagram account, where I lead content strategy, filming, editing, and posting, along with developing content decks. My position blends operational excellence with creative execution, allowing me to contribute meaningfully across multiple areas of the organization.
