I have over a decade of experience in high-level operational support and project management roles. I've honed my skills in creating efficient systems and streamlining processes. I have a unique blend of relationship building and analytical thinking. I believe in the power of a people-first approach to drive meaningful change. My journey has taken me from the vibrant world of art studios in Los Angeles to the halls of academia at the University of Colorado Boulder. This background has shaped my perspective, allowing me to see the big picture while optimizing day-to-day operations. I firmly believe that art, at its core, is about communication – a principle I apply to every aspect of my work.Strategic problem-solving is my forte, but I tackle challenges with empathy and kindness. I take pride in my ability to build positive interactions across diverse stakeholder groups, from executives and donors to volunteers and students. This skill has been invaluable in my current role as Coordinator of Office Operations in the Mechanical Engineering Dept., where I manage budgets, oversee events, and maintain crucial relationships with our Strategic Advisory Board.I'm very passionate about doing work that has a humanitarian impact. Whether I'm coordinating team-building events, managing complex projects, or fostering relationships with advisory boards, I always strive to make a positive difference in people's lives. My approach is balanced, combining strong project management skills with a deep understanding of human dynamics.I'm always looking for new ways to improve processes and enhance organizational productivity. But more than that, I'm seeking opportunities to create meaningful connections and foster a sense of community.
