Giebeh Malabanan

Growth Operations Coordinator

Why I’m Here: I’ve been with Ava Health since the beginning, back when so much of what we have today was still just an idea. I started as Christopher’s personal Executive Assistant, never imagining that I would eventually become part of the company we were slowly bringing to life. I was simply there to help, figure things out, and turn ideas into something real. Somewhere along the way, Ava Health became more than something I was helping build behind the scenes. I became part of it too. Today, as Growth Operations Coordinator, I work alongside our marketing team to turn ideas into action and keep things moving forward. It’s special to have seen Ava Health grow from its earliest days and to know that I’m growing right alongside it.

About Me

I’m a go-getter who loves learning, solving problems, and figuring things out along the way. I’m comfortable wearing different hats, adapting when priorities change, and stepping into something unfamiliar when needed.

My experience spans operations, marketing, executive support, client management, and administration. It’s taught me that you don’t need to know everything from the start. You just need to stay curious and be willing to learn.

Why I Do This Work

I enjoy being part of something that’s growing and evolving. There’s something rewarding about taking an idea, figuring out what needs to happen next, and helping bring it to life.

For me, it’s not about having all the answers. It’s about being willing to learn, take ownership, and find a way forward.

What I Bring Professionally

I bring initiative, flexibility, curiosity, and follow-through. If I don’t know how to do something, I’ll ask, research, learn, and figure it out.

I want to be someone the team can depend on. Someone who pays attention to the details, takes ownership, and helps get things across the finish line.

How I Show Up at Ava Health

At Ava Health, I try to show up as someone who is proactive, dependable, and always willing to help.

Things move quickly, priorities change, and new challenges come up. My mindset is simple: What needs to happen, and how can I help move it forward?

I care about doing good work, but just as importantly, I care about being a good teammate.

The Emotional Core

Ava Health has become more than just a job to me. I’ve had the opportunity to grow alongside the company, step outside my comfort zone, and discover what I’m capable of along the way.

Being part of building something meaningful and knowing that I’m growing with it is what makes this journey special to me.

What Grounds Me

My family keeps me grounded. They’ve always supported and believed in me, and being able to give back and give them experiences they haven’t had before is one of my biggest motivations.

Outside of work, you’ll usually find me in the kitchen, confidently cooking the dishes I know and chaotically attempting something I saw on TikTok five minutes ago.”
