An executive assistant for the hours you need, and not the ones you don't.

I'm Corey, a fractional executive assistant. I support executives and their boards part-time, ongoing or for a single project, so you get senior help without hiring a full-time role.

Email me what's on your plate

A few things you could hand me on Monday

  • The board packet due Thursday that currently lives in six different inboxes.
  • Notes from this morning's leadership meeting, sent out, with every action item tracked until it's closed.
  • A new hire starting in two weeks who has no laptop, no logins, and no first-day schedule.
  • The shared drive nobody can find anything in.
  • Next month's calendar, rebuilt around what actually needs you.
  • The policy updates everyone agreed to in March and nobody wrote down.

You tell me the outcome you want. I work out who to ask and what's missing, and then I get it done. You hear from me when it's finished, or when there's a decision only you can make.

If you have a board, I can run everything around the meeting.

Plenty of assistants manage a calendar. Fewer have sat on the staff side of a board and kept its meetings running. I've worked closely with boards and committees, and I know how much work a two-hour meeting takes.

Before
The meeting calendar, agendas built with the chair, and packets assembled and sent on time.
During
Minutes, and the board technology working when people join.
After
Action items tracked to done, and follow-up with directors and committee members so the next meeting doesn't start by asking what happened to the last one.

The rest of what I take on

For you

Scheduling, meeting preparation and follow-up, executive communications, and research. If it keeps your priorities moving, it's my job.

Projects and operations

Coordinating projects across departments, documenting processes, reporting, and rolling out new tools. I'm good at finding the step everyone works around and fixing it.

People and policy

Hiring coordination, onboarding, policies and procedures, and internal communications.

How we'd start

Send me an email about what's piling up. We'll set up a call, and if it's a fit, I'll suggest either a set number of hours a month or a scoped project with a clear finish line.

About me

I work on the operations side of leadership. I've supported C-suite executives, worked with boards, coordinated projects across teams, and improved the systems that keep organizations running.

I'm proactive and discreet. I'll learn how your organization works without needing every step mapped out, and when something could work better, I'll tell you.

I work in Microsoft 365, SharePoint, Google Workspace, Zoom, and Teams, and I'll learn whatever else your team already uses.

What would you hand off first?

Tell me in a couple of sentences. That's enough for me to know whether I can help.
