Ivette M Bolender Email & Phone Number

I am an experienced professional with a diverse background in finance, project management, and environmental consulting. Over the past two years, I worked as part of a small financial team for a multi-location restaurant, overseeing operations for 240 staff members and navigating complex regulatory requirements. I utilized QuickBooks (both online and desktop) and payroll platforms such as Toast, ADP, and Gusto to streamline processes. My role extended into HR and marketing, where I provided valuable support, particularly for non-English speaking staff.Prior to this, I worked with a co-working company in the Chicago suburbs, where I led hospitality efforts and organized community-building events, fostering collaboration among the space’s users.My career began in environmental consulting, where I spent decades working as a field geologist, project manager, and eventually, area manager. I successfully opened a small office for a boutique firm in the Great Lakes region and led teams on significant restoration projects across Ohio and Wisconsin, including dam removal and stream and wetland restoration in urban areas. I thrived on working closely with local governments, communities, and federal/state regulators.I am passionate about problem-solving, collaboration, and leading teams to achieve shared goals.
