Korina Mitchell worked for me for several years at Opportunity International. She was the the most skilled administrative assistant I have ever managed. Korina's biggest asset is her ability to problem solve. She never approached me with a problem without also presenting several possible solutions, many of which were implemented department-wide. Korina, was already with Opportunity when I was hired as her manager. The department was critically understaffed at the time and it quickly became apparent that Korina was a key employee whose expertise and dedication was keeping the department afloat. She was able to use technology to the advantage of the company and was therefore able to handle an enormous workload and ever-changing priorities with ease. Korina's skills and work ethic went far beyond her title of Administrative Assistant. While she handled the daily responsibilities of adminstrative support for several fund raisers, she was an expert in software skills. Korina designed and generated strategic reports from the company data base that assesed and tracked fund raiser performance, donor demographics, and financial data. Additionally, Korina understood the sensitivity of this information and maintained maintained its privacy. Korina is a dedicated, intelligent and creative employee. I highly recommend Korina for a position that will capitalize on her strengths as an administrative assistant and/or database manager. It was a pleasure to manage Korina.
