I'm a Chicago native, cancer survivor, former pole vaulter, entrepreneur, and more. I take pride in being a people-first professional with a robust skillset in Product & Project Management, Analytics, and Strategy Planning.Throughout my career, I have learned to adapt and innovate quickly in various situations. This has made me very good at discerning both people and problems & finding the best solutions to ensure the most important problems are solved first.Skills I've Developed:• Can go off the Beaten Path: I can take a non-traditional approach to problem-solving. Unafraid of the ambiguous and unknown• Seeing the little things, in the big picture: As an innovative discerner, I tend to identify the things that are easy to miss by others• Versatile communicator: Able to carry and discern a conversation with people from all levels - from Executive leaders to new hires – to gather or convey the most important information.• Giving others the opportunity to succeed: Creating accessible content, adhering to Adult Learning Theory/ADDIE/Kilpatrick method, new-hire and leadership coaching, training needs assessments.• Technology Know-how: Proficient in Microsoft Office, Microsoft Teams, Articulate (Rise, Review, Peak 360), HubSpot, Smartsheet, Visual Studio Code, GitHub• Putting things down on paper: New-hire training, internal & external customer SLA’s, standard operating procedures (SOPs), department and company training materials• Navigating stormy seas: I face the ambiguous and unknowns with a decisive plan of action. Always ensuring that the plan is focused on how the expected result will be achieved.• Understanding how Human’s tick: I intuitively identify and get to the root of what someone needs, where they are stuck, or what may be situational to someone’s circumstance.• Learning on the Fly: developing programs and products from ideation to implementation, filing visa petitions, adapting to market changes in IT/staffing/differing industries• Always a student: I’m always curious and looking to learn something new. I embrace and seek out the opportunities to learn what I don’t know (ask me why I’m learning HTML, CSS, JavaScript and Node.js)• Leading from the front: I get in the trenches and show the way, I don’t tell the way. • Independent plate spinner: Accustomed to managing multiple responsibilities with little supervision.• Need it yesterday?: Deadlines don’t scare me; I’ll find a way to get it done.Always willing to expand my network!
