Beauty Elements, a wholesaler specializing in hair extensions, wigs, and miscellaneous beauty products in the US, Latin American, and South American markets, with a mission to “help make humanity brighter, more beautiful, and lead more confident lives.”To optimize cost efficiency and streamline flow of merchandise, I orchestrated delivery from container terminal to warehouse by managing communication between freight forwarders and Beauty Elements’ warehouse & sales managers resulting in the smooth transportation of an estimated 2,500 boxes of merchandise weekly. To maximize time efficiency, I leveraged Microsoft Excel tools to engineer solutions that automized redundant tasks ensuring delivery of accurate inventory checklists and packing lists, leading to an impressive 60% reduction in overall task completion time and saved an estimated 10+ hours weekly.

Assisted the Departement of State Foreign Service Institute’s East Asia and Pacific Languages Department in creating an immersive language training for US government personnel and diplomats to equip induviduals with the linguistic proficiency necessary for international engagement. All American Diplomats learn the language of the countries where they will be posted, and they do so at the Foreign Service Institute (FSI). As an Intern, I virtually meet with each student (Diplomat), for about 45-60 minutes, once or twice per week. I hold conversations on topics that are relevant to their level of studies (e.g., from talking about family, job, background, up to subjects such as the environment, health, and other higher-level topics).
