About

I am Isabella Katjerungu, an experienced Executive Assistant and administrative professional with over 30 years of experience supporting senior leadership and coordinating complex programmes. I bring strong organizational and operational skills, along with discretion and attention to detail, gained through roles that required managing calendars and meetings, preparing executive correspondence and reports, and maintaining accurate records.

I have led curriculum and learning materials development work, coordinated workshops and training activities, and worked closely with internal teams and external stakeholders to keep projects on track. I am proficient with Microsoft Office and Microsoft Teams, and I enjoy turning priorities into clear plans—so teams can communicate effectively, execute smoothly, and deliver measurable outcomes.
