If you’re looking for someone who is not just highly skilled but also reliable, innovative, and an absolute pleasure to work with, Mercy is the perfect choice. I highly recommend her – 100%

Working with Mercy has been an absolute game-changer! She handled document automation, Excel data management and data entry, PowerPoint presentations, and administrative tasks with such precision and efficiency that everything felt effortless. The way she streamlined our processes not only saved me countless hours but also improved overall productivity.

Beyond her technical expertise in workflow automation and process optimization, what truly sets Mercy apart is her dedication and proactive approach. She doesn’t just wait for instructions; she anticipates needs, finds solutions, and takes action.

I especially appreciate how she stepped in when we urgently needed our website to be constantly updated. Despite being outside her scope of work, she took it up, handled it seamlessly, and honestly, she saved us right there. She is versatile and has a broad knowledge in the use of various tools.

Dear Mercy !

I want to sincerely thank you for the work you’ve done. You’re professional, friendly, and very easy to communicate with, which really sets you apart from others in similar roles.

I also think we’ve built a system that works. You understand the client’s needs clearly and have done a great job. I’m not just saying that to be nice.

Keep up with the great work

Landon Colvig
Founder, Daytanalytics

“I hired Mercy as an executive assistant and she’s been fantastic. Her technical skills are impressive – she jumped right into managing my LinkedIn and other social media accounts with minimal guidance. She’s saved me hours each week by taking over my business’s social presence.

What I appreciate most is her efficiency. Mercy is direct and doesn’t waste time with unnecessary communication – she gets things done quickly and correctly. When she needed to learn something new, she figured it out independently without requiring hand-holding.

If you need someone who can handle technical tasks, communicates clearly, and delivers quality work without drama, Mercy is your person. Definitely planning to continue working with her.”

James Harveymore
CEO, Naveda

I have always had a great experience with Mercy. She delivered another excellent job, and his services have always been outstanding and exceptional. Every part of the project was excellently done. Thanks for a great job. Look forward to working with you again!

John Andredon
Research Analyst, United States

MERCY IS AMAZING! Highly professional, communicative, and fast delivery. She gave her 100% to ensure the job came out great. She went above and beyond to ensure she delivered a quality job. She provided enough realistic data to help us proceed to our next stage in business. The amazing part is her work process. Well organized and highly communicative. My team and I endorse you 100%

Blessing Ikpesa
CEO, Blizzers Technologies

Mercy supported me as an Executive Assistant for over five years and later transitioned me into the role of our in-house Data Analyst for two years, making it seven years of consistent, high-impact contributions to our business.

As an EA, she was the backbone of our operations, handling everything from executive scheduling, inbox and calendar management to team coordination and internal documentation. Her proactive mindset and sharp organizational skills kept the entire leadership team focused and efficient.

When she moved into data analytics, her impact became even more measurable. Mercy transformed messy, disconnected data into clean, clear dashboards that enabled us to make smarter, faster decisions. Thanks to her strategies, we cut our operational costs by 15% in just 6 months and increased sales by 20%. More impressively, her insights contributed to a 35% growth in the brand overall.

Dr. Samantha Roberts-Johnson
Cheif Data Officer

Working with Mercy was truly a game-changer for our organization, especially in optimizing inefficient systems that had previously slowed us down.

She analyzed over 100,000 patient records with precision, transforming raw data into actionable strategies that drove real results. Her insights led to a 25% reduction in patient wait times and a significant 18% decrease in overtime costs through smarter staff scheduling.

Mercy doesn’t just analyze data—she translates it into clear decisions that boost efficiency, improve patient experience, and cut costs. Her work brought clarity and results where there were recurring issues. If you’re looking for someone who blends analytical thinking with operational impact, Mercy is the one

I asked for something that has a tight timeline, and this seller assured me. Next after putting her in a tight schedule, I requested some edits. She accepted and resubmitted within hours. Incredible customer service. I will be back over and over again. She was upfront with her skill sets. I would rate this seller 11/10.

My Hustle & Highlights

I’m a chocolate addict with zero plans to quit. Somewhere between introvert and extrovert, I lean 80% sanguine. As a mom in tech, I enjoy the rhythm of balancing motherhood and meaningful work. I’m not a book lover by title, but I’ve read over 30 books in the past three months—from Smart Money Woman to Rich Dad, Poor Dad—because growth inspires me.

I love colors, creativity & numbers.

My journey started with self-taught PowerPoint design—where I discovered the power of visual communication. That curiosity led me into graphic and web design, blending clarity with creativity. Over time, I found my true passion in systems where structure meets simplicity.

Today, I help founders and teams bring clarity to their operations through automation, workflow optimization, and smart productivity systems. From visuals to backend efficiency, I design calm from chaos because structure should feel empowering, not overwhelming.

I’m a chocolate addict with zero plans to quit, I'm not sure if I'm an introvert or an extrovert but I know that I'm 80% sanguine.

I'm a mom, who enjoys joggling being a mom and having a career in tech. I'm not a book addict but I have read 30 books in the last three months including "Smart Money Woman" by Aresa Ugwu, "The $100 Startup" by Chris Guillebeau, "Women and money" by Suze Orman, "The Richest Man in Babylon" by George S. Clason and presently reading ""Rich dad, Poor dad" among others.

I love colors, creativity, and numbers. As a tech lover who started out as a self-taught powerpoint designer, I’ve always been drawn to technology and design. I started with PowerPoint, experimenting with slides and animations, which sparked my love for visual communication. As I got more into graphic design, I learned how to make messages clearer through images. Then, website design taught me how to combine creativity with functionality. Eventually, I got curious about using data to tell stories, which led me to data analysis. Each skill has built on the other, design taught me visual representation of ideas, and data analysis showed me how to back up decisions with insights.​
