Learning and Talent Development @ WessDel | Developing Comprehensive Learning Programs. Ex Gong

Hi, I’m Carolyn (she/her), and if you think admin life is just about calendars and coffee, let me introduce you to the new age of executive support—where AI and humans team up to make magic happen.

At Perplexity, I operate at the nerve center of our boundary-pushing AI company—serving as the right-hand to the Office of the CEO and the heartbeat for operations that keep our people, projects, and purpose moving fast. On any given day, you’ll find me orchestrating logistics for global exec teams, troubleshooting tech for hybrid meetings, wrangling confidential docs, welcoming partners from around the world, and collaborating with brilliant minds across every function.

I’m not just supporting workflows, I’m architecting new ones—building bridges between people, leveraging smart tools, and championing company culture so every cog in our innovation machine spins smoothly. Whether it’s laying out the perfect event, solving travel snafus on the fly, or making chaos look like clockwork, I thrive in the swirl of real-time problem-solving and high-impact action.

My superpowers: reading a room (and a calendar) with equal skill, mastering the fine line between proactive and unobtrusive, and making sure every detail—even the ones you don’t see—elevates the whole team. Bonus: I play well with both humans and AI.

As MVP of our “get it done” team, I keep the momentum strong, our culture sharp, and our details airtight—so our AI (and our people) can keep pushing the future forward.
