Mary Kuria
About Me
My name is Mary Kuria, and I work as an Executive Virtual Assistant specializing in customer service, administration, and social media management. To date, I’ve had the privilege of supporting business leaders and entrepreneurs by organizing their schedules, streamlining workflows, and building stronger client relationships.
My career path has been shaped by a passion for organization, clear communication, and helping others focus on what matters most. I enjoy creating systems that prevent things from falling through the cracks and managing details that keep projects moving forward.
Looking ahead, I aspire to continue building on these strengths while contributing to meaningful causes through volunteer work. My ideal volunteer opportunities are those where I can use my skills in:
- Administration & coordination – helping with scheduling, planning, and keeping activities on track
- Communication & outreach – supporting correspondence, managing inquiries, or engaging with communities online
- Social media & digital support – creating content, managing pages, or helping raise awareness for the initiative.
I believe that volunteering is not only a way to give back, but also a chance to collaborate, learn, and make a real difference using the skills I already possess.
