Over the course of four years, I progressed from a security guard to General Manager, demonstrating my ability to effectively manage the demands of a high-volume, fast-paced environment. I handled daily operations, including creating weekly schedules for all staff, from bartenders to security personnel. I led monthly staff meetings to ensure adherence to company standards, managed inventory and profit and loss documentation, and maintained financial accuracy in QuickBooks. Additionally, I addressed escalated issues promptly to uphold a safe and compliant environment for both staff and customers.

In my past role in marketing and business development, I focused on driving impactful growth for non-profit organizations, specifically Children’s International and Feeding America. I developed tailored marketing strategies to support these organizations' missions, with a strong emphasis on long-term donor acquisition. My approach involved creating cohesive, high-performing teams through structured training programs that equipped them to establish meaningful client relationships. Through functional team-building exercises, I trained teams to achieve high levels of engagement and long-term support for our non-profit partners, thereby enhancing their outreach and operational impact.
