In our Meet the Team series, we’re excited to shine a spotlight on the dedicated AKCG team members serving our valued clients.
This week, meet Raquel Avilés, the firm’s executive administrator and the wearer of many hats. From office administration and operations to finances to social media, Raquel helps drive our agency forward. Learn more about Raquel below.
What does a typical day at AKCG look like for you?
In the morning, I review my list of duties I have to complete and prioritize accordingly. Every day looks a little different!
You have your hand in coordinating a lot for the firm – from finances to office operations to administrative duties – how do you keep it all straight?
Being organized is key. I use a notebook to track my day. I have post-its all over my computer screen to remember the more important things that need to get done. I also update my calendar with reminders and due dates.
What is your favorite thing about working on the AKCG team?
I’ve never worked with such a diligent group of people before. It’s very admirable. The AKCG team has a great work ethic and is a pleasure to work with.
What professional accomplishment are you most proud of?
I am most proud of assisting our principals in streamlining the billing process after no longer having access to an office setting during the pandemic. Not only has this back-end process become more efficient, it also is environmentally friendly since we have digitized the process.
Just for fun: What are some of your hidden talents?
I love to sing; I am on the worship team at my church. I am also a creative – I enjoy watercolor painting, photography and creating video content.
