Empowering Executives & Teams for Organizational Excellence | Specializing in Time & Logistics Management, Stakeholder Communication & Project Coordination | Passionate Beach Lover & Outdoor Runner
I'm Nichole Amaya, a dynamic Project Manager and Executive Assistant with a knack for Business Development. Graduating with honors and an Associate's Degree in Business Administration from San Diego Mesa College laid the groundwork for my journey. Currently, I serve as the Executive Assistant to the CEO at Jacob Green and Associates, a consultancy specializing in strategic planning, innovation, and leadership development for local municipalities. Within this pivotal role, I orchestrate all facets of the CEO's office operations, from meticulous scheduling and correspondence to confidential project management and document handling. As a trusted liaison, I foster seamless communication between the CEO, internal teams, and external stakeholders. Moreover, I'm the gatekeeper of proposal quality control, ensuring excellence at every stage. From CRM system maintenance to orchestrating keynote addresses and conference logistics, I ensure the CEO's vision is flawlessly executed. Before my tenure at Jacob Green and Associates, I honed my skills as a Senior Project Manager and Business Development professional at Power Brands. There, I spearheaded innovative development timelines for global clients while enhancing departmental efficiencies. My tenure involved the meticulous onboarding of new clients, orchestrating innovation teams, and facilitating the sale of cutting-edge services. Additionally, I played a pivotal role in streamlining supply chain logistics and raw material procurement for pilot runs. With six years of high-level administrative assistance and project management under my belt, I pride myself on my diverse skill set and unwavering commitment to surpassing expectations. Outside the office, I'm a fervent advocate for an active lifestyle; you'll often find me hitting the pavement for a run or exploring the depths as a free diver. My adventurous spirit extends to the skies, where I proudly hold a B-License for skydiving. Traveling, especially to natural wonders, fuels my curiosity and appreciation for the world around us. Family holds a special place in my heart, and I cherish moments spent with our three beloved dogs (Lucy, Georgie, and Berry). Beyond my professional pursuits, I'm a certified Real Estate Salesperson with a keen interest in market trends. I'm driven by a passion for realizing organizational visions and goals, consistently striving to deliver exceptional results and service. Let's connect and explore how we can collaborate to achieve remarkable outcomes together.
