“With a Sleeves Up and Hands On attitude ... you Can Do It”
Having been working with the same employer/property for the last 13 years, initially as a Maintenance and Security Supervisor, the evolution to the position I occupy today as House Manager and Executive Assistant was natural, intense and challenging. 15 years of professional experience in the area of Information Technologies and 5 years in the area of the Real Estate Market as a manager and trainer, have contributed greatly to maintaining the high levels required for the tasks I carry out daily. I want to be the “Ideal Candidate” for what I consider to be my “Ideal Job”, that combine the roles and responsibilities of Executive or Personal Assistant and House Management, and feed as well my passion for service.
