About

Hi, I’m Joana! Originally from Greece, I’ve lived in Vienna for 6 years and now call London home since 2018. With 6 years of experience in administrative and reception roles across the luxury fashion and fitness industries, I’m passionate about creating exceptional client experiences that leave a lasting impression. Known for my bubbly, approachable personality, I thrive on building strong relationships and making people feel welcomed, whether they’re clients or colleagues. I’m a master at managing high-level schedules, optimising communication, and streamlining processes to keep everything running smoothly. I’m also a pro at handling the fast-paced, high-end environments where attention to detail is crucial. Whether I’m coordinating meetings, overseeing daily operations, or tackling tasks head-on, I love keeping things organized and efficient while supporting my team’s success. With a results-driven mindset, I’m always focused on improving workflows, boosting performance, and delivering top-notch service that contributes to long-term growth. I’m the go-to person when it comes to making things happen and ensuring everyone around me shines!
