Client Overview:

I worked to optimize and organize the email inboxes for executives at various organizations: the president at CVSC, a partner at ICONIQ Growth, and the Athletic Director/VP at CSUEB.

Automation Integration: Integrated automation tools to streamline repetitive tasks and ensure consistent email management practices.
Training and Support: Provided comprehensive training and ongoing support to help executives effectively utilize the new email organization strategies and tools.

Results:
