Hi, I’m Madi! 👋At a glance: 👉 5+ years in startups👉 Jack of all trades👉 Solo traveler with 30+ countries and counting👉 Writer (I’m working on my third novel!) 👉 Passionate about Gen Z and helping people live the life they dream of👉 I get stuff doneMore in depth: I always like to introduce myself by saying that I’m someone who loves envisioning the big picture but getting real about the systematic steps needed to actualize it. I thrive as an optimist but stay grounded enough to be logical. 🎓 I have a bachelor’s in Media Communications and a master’s in Entrepreneurship & Innovation. 💼 I’m able to draw on my varied background from roles such as at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics to founding the Gen Z Girlies global community to help me stay on my toes, innovate, and adapt quickly. 📈 I’ve also had experience with scaling affiliate programs, partnering with influencers, managing social media accounts, hosting webinars, and overseeing cross-functional work to move projects from conception to completion. As well as the related data collection and KPI tracking.🌎 Not to mention, I have a personal streak for adventure including climbing a 13,000 foot active volcano in Guatemala, snowboarding in Austria, running a half-marathon in Paris, and taking boxing classes here at home. 💡 I love to do work that gives me a chance to make a difference, has real impact, and leans into my values and passions.If you’re interested in getting connected -> shoot me a DM or email me at madeline.ilise@gmail.com.
