About Katie Samples
Ten years of extensive project management, event planning, and customer service experience, with additional experience in volunteer management, visitor experiences, and exhibition evaluation & research. Task oriented, highly organized, and attentive to detail; yet also intuitively adept at working with people. An enthusiastic supporter and advocate for music, nature, and museums; uniquely positioned to understand and value both product and audience. Passionately committed to cultural knowledge shared in a relevant and meaningful ways that engages broader groups of people. An expert project manager, I relish tasks, projects, and problems that allow me the opportunity to systematically and analytically devise and implement effective strategies and solutions. Due to 6 successful years as a project manager at PS Lehman, a personal concierge firm, I think in terms of efficiency, completion, and exceeding expectations. I can see long-range goals and obstacles, and strategize how to get around them, while remaining focused on the details at hand. As a customer service professional, I enjoy providing valuable services to others. Regardless of where I am employed, I make it my personal mission to make every client or customer feel welcome, at ease, with their needs fully met. I intuitively relate well to diverse populations of people and have the adaptability needed to engage all clients/customers at their level of interest. Most recently, as Volunteer Coordinator at Ten Thousand Villages, I discovered the joy of sharing information with others. I am able to share information in a charismatic and enthusiastic manner, that is compelling to my audience. I utilize the same systematic, organized approach demonstrated in my project management skills to share information. The result is information shared in a logical, easy-to-understand, yet engaging, way. This is an important growth area in my future professional endeavors.
