I have 10+ years of professional experience across a range of positions and industries. My own startup Social Quiztancing was featured in Denver Startup Week, and I have worked at a non-profit (Make-A-Wish) and a non-profit startup (Plentiful) in addition to working in education at a technology startup as well as an elementary school as director of communications. This non-traditional journey has given me remarkable breadth, but I am eager to focus my career in the direction where my true passion lies: film and writing. With a multidisciplinary academic foundation from Duke University and eclectic experience in the nonprofit, social entrepreneurship, and education technology fields, I have brought a wide-ranging perspective to bridge the gaps that often exist between analytics, operations, sales, finance, content, marketing, IT, and management roles. Then, I left all that behind at the beginning of the pandemic to make a career shift and start a remote trivia company, which maximized my creativity to offer unique and fun, live game experiences. It started as a weekly game for family and friends to raise money for the food insecure at the beginning of the pandemic before the demand increased for quizzes for companies and workplaces, and it became a full-fledged business. Our success is primarily down to the high-quality production value and content. Strong theming and a team-building focus have enabled many professional and social groups to partake in trivia that is not just "you-know-it-or-you-don't" but rather more puzzle-oriented quizzing. Q&A, Audio, Visual rounds are supplemented by signature word smash formats and three different types of unique film/movie rounds. As the pandemic waned, so did demand for virtual activities. Social Quiztancing is still operating! But in the meantime, I went to work for Plentiful to more directly assist the food insecure in addition to the trivia donations. Now, I'm excited to be looking for roles closer to writing and film.
